Eric: any thoughts on this? It's looking like a "won't fix" to me. Regardless of what we think the "right" thing to do is, making the float behaviour stricter would be a backwards compatibility break, and relaxing the Decimal behaviour involves either diverging from the upstream libmpdec (and then having to maintain that divergence if we update to newer versions of libmpdec) or pushing changes back upstream. Both of those options seem like more effort than it's worth for something that apparently hasn't actually bothered anyone for several years. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue6871> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
