Please provide any additional information below.

from my admin:



There is a problem in calling of encode() method, although valid in newer
python version, in version 2.6.x the keyword 'errors' cannot be used. When
removed, goobook works ok in Debian Squeeze default python version, please
update code to retain 2.6 compatibility.

Sorry, will not retain 2.6 compatibility there is also a library that need
to
be 2.6 compatible and even if it the parts used works at the moment that
will most
likely not continue to be the case.

Should also note that it's quite likely that the next version, whenever
that happens,
will require Python 3.3.
