I think we need to be more careful about using those patch level release numbers. If we do a new release every time OpenSSL needs to get patched, we'd probably hit the 2.7.10 wall later this year. IMO, now would be a good time to discuss how we should deal with the patch level number turning two digit or preventing that using some other approach. ---------- nosy: +lemburg _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21308> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
