I have been studying unicode and its Python implementation now for two days, and I think I'm getting a glimpse of what it is about. Just to get confident, I'm asking if my assumptions for my current problems are correct. In Django, forms give me unicode strings which I suspect to be "broken".

So python pre 3.0 has two types for strings, namely: str (...

So far I am: 1...
