That would not be good -- at least if module authors would follow the new API. Some current implementations support only param styles you want to remove. As a consequence, there are lots of code that use them (because they must). Not good (for the acceptance of a new API version) when it breaks large amount of existing code. -- Dieter _______________________________________________ DB-SIG maillist - DB-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/db-sig
