That said, I welcome any suggestions to improve things. The ultimate reasons we need to purge some modules are the same two reasons I indicated on python-dev: C extension modules are almost immortal; and some C code keeps references alive too long. Do you agree that this patch is ok and we should address those two problems in separate new issues? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18214> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
