Because 'stable' denotes that it works as intended, that it can be installed easily, etc. All of these are true now for python3. There are applications being written for it. We want to package those too. I'm fine with people masking it, and maybe we should make that easier somehow, but 3.x should definitely be stable. > We're completely dependent on the hundreds of upstream Python-coded projects > to switch on their timetable. Forcing a useless Python version to be the > default in Gento doesn't force *them* to write 3.x-compatible code. It will *NOT* under this proposal be the default. Please formulate more carefully if you want to make an argument. Cheers, Dirkjan
