Actually, he asked first if we *want* him to make one, and my answer to that is above: I don't think it's necessary. Like Martin, I believe we are within sight of a consensus. And I think that's better for Python and Python-Dev than dragging Guido into it. _______________________________________________ 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
