Whaaaa? You raise an exception to indicate the *normal* case? That seems, um... well, a Very Bad Idea. I also don't see any point to start(), or understand what finish() does or why you'd want it. Last, but far from least, as far as I can tell you can implement all of these semantics using PEP 342 as it sits. That is, it's very simple to make decorators or classes that add those semantics. I don't see anything that requires them to be part of Python. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
