My impression is that the latter is essentially a superset of the former and that the latter is compatible with the former. The question then becomes whether we really want to invent a third way of doing interfaces in Python, or whether our time is better spent selecting and promoting one of the existing, tried-and-true packages. Perhaps it would be better for us to figure out how and if the two packages can be integrated. If a third way is still advocated, then I think it must have a fairly high barrier to acceptance in order to push aside such long accepted libraries. - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iQCVAwUBRfWYhnEjvBPtnXfVAQLIYgP/WbVv1ezQriZ+Vcbens8vl25q8RwCudik aTcJCDEPXCykhYDbj9KQIaNQd/+HBRgoBmUwEbQgCUI18zUBCNjanvODCcI9Kb/s Ad9w1gsTT1gqTPA2yLggfpYCS7mGttSLPvZJvXw9Vc60wjfpVtgCJphZG6WXza/i IrLpOYcOklc= =FNNm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
