Hi,

I'm using 2.7 and it's a unicode string: u'привет' - I'm actually getting
them from my gtalk_daemon

type(message) will return unicode

I'm now using a dirty walkaround:

def send_message(self, topic, message):
            if type(message) == unicode:
                message = str(message).encode('string_escape')
            result, some_number = Client.mc.publish(topic, message)

this is not really good because now all strings, even plain latin will be
the same type...
