If the intent is really to do a source-only releases mostly for system vendors, then I don't see the harm in leaving those changes in. I mean, a vendor is going to cherry pick the ones they want anyway, so let's just make it easy for them to do this. That might mean publishing the svn logs a long with the source release, or publishing each diff and log message separately. I would be bummed to rollback the email package changes. - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (Darwin) iQCVAwUBR50rxnEjvBPtnXfVAQK4UQP/Xbj6YhXAbhqdZBdirgTw3O9dqocgzgT/ 7Sky4fl0WaSTxRJc3/P0E4uR69TixZ5E7z3pt4G0QeKZCjub3l6xzKiJ7dccAWbW V8otTxCyavXN8wW99orBqgB2J+H0BFkHlPJdYOOBigBuWrSn/Ew2wrZeXRnBfz// qBvWbwlA+sE= =u/23 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ 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
