My preference is to remove the method entirely and then implement the approach in PEP 343 by adding a module level "localcontext()" function in Py2.6. If you keep the method, then at least: * fix the docstring (and make it doctestable) * rename the method to .localcontext() * move the .copy() step to inside the contextmanager instead of its caller * update the WhatsNew example to match * add a unittest _______________________________________________ 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
