Hi, Jeff,

Thanks a lot for your great job. We really appreciate it.

Where can I find the latest fix?

Since you have the multi-byte characters environment with the fix, could
you please try out the following use case which failed for me before and
see if they are fixed too?

1. Create a py script, test.py. The test.py file defines a function called
create() which simply returns the value of the parameter:

def create(name):
    return name

2. Then start Jython 2.7 and run:

>>> execfile("test.py")
>>> create("
*\u4f7f\u7528')  <-- input multi-byte characters**u'\u4F7F\u7528'      <--
Expecting the same unicode representing the multi-byte characters, but
instead got something like *

*'\xBB\xC8\xCD\xD1' which is not correct to me.*
If it's not fixed, do I need to file a new issue or just keep using this
issue #?

Thanks a lot,
Rose
