It should be expected that many users will keep both 2.x and 3 side by side for quite a long time. Instead of having distributions choosing their own naming schemes (like the python/python2 redhat fiasco) perhaps the Python 3 executable should have a different name as part of the standard distribution? I suggest "py" / "py.exe" Oren _______________________________________________ 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
