Not sure how David will comment.

My personal opinion is that python-ldap 2.0 should make direct use
of the new Unicode objects in Python 2.0 (I dropped Python 1.5.2 in
web2ldap because of this). If we can provide normal string support
and Unicode support at the same time without producing a code bloat
then we could keep Python 1.5.2 support. If it gets too messy
personally I would like to drop support for non-Unicode Python
versions since migrating to e.g. Python 2.0 isn't that hard anyway
and Unicode objects are so handy...

Ciao, Michael.
