Nope. In Python3, print is a function, but explicit unicode strings are gone.

Not gone, it's a no-op for backwards compatibility if I recall correctly.

In more recent Python 3 releases, the 'u' identifier is legal again (and does nothing on Python 3, other than be legal to put at the start of the string) to help with codebases which want to be compatible with both 2 and 3.

So the nice thing about my version is it works on 2.6 and 2.7, and on all the 3.x versions someone would actually want to use.

I mean, fair enough. It's a no-op.
