---------------------------
- Dropped support for Python 2 < 2.7.1 and Python 3 < 3.3
- Two helpers ``u`` and ``b`` that ensure a nice conversion to
``unicode`` and ``bytes`` regardles being in Py2 or Py3 and using
UTF-8 as default encoding.
- New ``out`` function to send undecorated content, but still portable
and unicode safe, to stdout
- Unicode over pipes without needing PYTHONIOENCODING, defaulting to
utf-8 instead of ASCII
- Respects stdout/stderr encoding when PYTHONIOENCODING or any other
local settings sets it
- When first parameter is a Py2 str’s is decoded as unicode using using
UTF-8
- First parameter can be any formatable type instead of text
