Also, supporting both 2.3 and 3.1 is a LOT of work, even when using 2to3. I'd be happy to be able to drop both 2.3 and 2.4 support in the Python 3 branch. -- Lennart Regebro: Python, Zope, Plone, Grok http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64 _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
