But - one shouldn't be writing six.iteritems(dict0) *anyway* except in really specific circumstances. We had a mega thread on that a few months back - tl;dr at our scale - even at our aspirational scale - it rarely if ever matters. Its that that makes me actually skeptical - the overheads of 2+3 single tree compat are really really low already, generally. -Rob -- Robert Collins <rbtcoll...@hp.com> Distinguished Technologist HP Converged Cloud __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
