+- Due to changes introduced WebOb 1.0, the
+  ``repoze.bfg.request.make_request_ascii`` event subscriber no longer

+  in a deployment so that code written before BFG 0.7.0 could run
+  unchanged.  At this point, such code will need to be rewritten to
+  expect Unicode from ``request.GET``, ``request.POST`` and
+  ``request.params`` or it will need to be changed to use
+  ``request.str_POST``, ``request.str_GET`` and/or
+  ``request.str_params`` instead of the non-``str`` versions of same,
+  as the non-``str`` versions of the same APIs always now perform
+  decoding to Unicode.
