But *some* of thei things that may have attracted people to python or

similar effect, perhaps adding extra line-noise syntax where none was
needed before...
Care to give any examples of 'unbeautifying' other than the print
statement -> print function conversion?
As to what I think will happen with adoption of Python 3... I think 2.x
and 3.x will coexist quite happily for a number of years (at least until
a 2.7 release, possibly even a 2.8).
Cheers,
Nick.
