Nick Coghlan added the comment: >From a "principle of least surprise" point of view, non-specialists would likely be puzzled by a trailing dot and wonder why it was there. By contrast, specialists that know the trailing dot is technically *supposed* to be there are already going to be accustomed to seeing it left out (because it is already left out in so many other contexts).
So I'm +1 for leaving out the trailing dot, as that likely won't surprise *any* users. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20480> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
