You are absolutely correct, it should not have gone to python-dev. It was supposed to go to python-3000, where the initial discussion took place, where Guido asked for someone to write the PEP right off the bat. However, as much as I love GMail, it makes it less than easy to always know which mailing list I'm on, so I actually thought I was in that discussion at dev, not 3000. I apologize to everyone for mixing the threads between lists! This is exactly why I need to start pulling in all the dev lists to the summaries. -- Read my blog! I depend on your acceptance of my opinion! I am interesting! http://ironfroggy-code.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ 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
