While we're on the subject, these sentinels also don't compare properly using `is` after pickling and unpickling. I think it's worth considering making the sentinels in the stdlib all have good reprs and support pickling+unpickling. What would be the potential backwards-compatibility issues with changing the implementation of these existing sentinel values? - Tal _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/KKDZ5TW6WXSQDE2YPOU6X5JXEU264HBS/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
