Decoding fails in python 3.3

Python 3.3.4 Pyrabbit 1.0.1 Httlib2 0.9

The following exception is thrown with an api call such as is_alive()

  ...
  File "C:\Python33\lib\site-packages\pyrabbit\api.py", line 48, in wrapper
    if self.has_admin_rights:

    whoami = self.get_whoami()

    whoami = self.http.do_call(path, 'GET')

Thanks, I'll get on this in the next 2-3 weeks, if not sooner. Appreciate the feedback!

I don't have 3.3.4, but this appears to work in head using python 3.4.1.

Python 3.4.1 (v3.4.1:c0e311e010fc, May 18 2014, 00:54:21)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from pyrabbit.api import Client
>>> cl = Client('localhost:55672', 'guest', 'guest')
>>> cl.is_alive()
True
>>>

If you have trouble with head, let me know. Otherwise, a new version will be released in the coming days.

It also see success when working with 3.4.1 I cannot upgrade the target environment to 3.4. Will the new version account for the error in 3.3?
