R. David Murray added the comment: Correct, 2.7 is not in security fix only mode (yet), but new features (anything that changes an API) or bug fixes that we wouldn't put in a maintenance release (things that would break existing programs) are not allowed. A special exception has been made for 2.7 for performance enhancements; we wouldn't normally do those in a maintenance release unless they were significant.
But as Steve says, it depends on a core developer being interested in applying the fix/backport. Which we may have, we'll wait and see :) ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27533> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
