That's an advantage, but it's a pretty small one -- the releasebuffer implementation would be very simple in this case. I'm bothered that the releaser field makes the protocol asymmetrical and thus harder to reason about. It would cost me more mental effort to convince myself that a releasebuffer implementation wasn't needed in any particular case than it would to write the one-line implementation otherwise required. -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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
