That's not a good reason for back-porting. If you want a "maintenance" branch for ctypes, feel free to create one in the subversion, likewise for tags. OTOH, I can't comment on whether those changes would be acceptable for a backport to the 2.5 maintenance branch - if they don't introduce actual new features, it might be ok. > The official Python 2.5.x win64/AMD64 windows installers should still *not* > contain the ctypes package, but they could install it separately. I don't really understand. Are you planning to back-port PCbuild changes also? If so, how should including those extensions be suppressed?
