One reason is correct documentation. If the code is rejected, there should be a patch proposed to remove the erroneous documentation references that indicates things are in __builtins_ when they are in fact not. If they are put into __builtins__, the documentation won't need updating. ;-) -Jeff Rush _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
