In Jython:

>>> type(u'hello')

>>> unicode

>>> type('Andr202')

>>> type(u'Andrx82')


Jython had to deal with Unicode long before CPython got it, if I remember correctly.

I found many bugs in IronPython and opened 7 tickets on CodePlex. But I didn't get any feedback... So I don't use Microsoft version of Python.

My Unicode bug report:

Odd - we've always had a very good response to bug reports, and usually pretty swift fioxes. (And we've posted a lot more than seven - but then we're a team of six working full time with IronPython).

I think you will get a better response posting bug reports to the mailing list than to codeplex (oddly enough).
