We've treated python and python3 as separate runtime environments. We also have a default python3 (just in the middle of transitioning to 3.2). The only meaningful change that would make python3 the 'default python' is if we pointed /usr/bin/python at it. It is definitely premature to do that. If we ever contemplate such a change is will be several releases from now. Scott K -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
