My current and future plans for pysqlite are really only additional features, like wrapping the rest of the SQLite API. > Some of these things sounded like API changes which may be more problematic > once in the core as we may have stricter rules on backwards > compatibility. All my plans for pysqlite are adding more methods to the API, so I see no backwards compatibility problems. > We also have to convert the doc from ReST to latex.

I understand your concern for keeping the amount of work for a 2.5 release manageable. So as Anthony Baxter said he'd like to work with me to make this happen, then I think he and I can try to not overload other people with more work. Creating latex docs sounds like I could do it, too. What I'd personally like to offload are these two tasks: - integreting pysqlite into the Python build process - in particular the win32 build process I would have access to Linux and win32 development machines with MS VS2003, but I don't have enough experience with the Python build process to not make stupid mistakes here. -- Gerhard _______________________________________________ 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
