Goodger and others really prefer not to continue the "broken" API
of the
threading API
I agree that the threading the the pyprocessing APIs should be PEP 8
compliant, but I think 2 APIs is almost worse than one wrong one.
A cleaner way to effectuate the transition would be to leave the
camelCase API in 2.6 (for both modules), switch to PEP 8 in py3k (for
both modules), and provide threading3k and multiprocessing3k modules
in 2.6 that façade the 2.6 API with the PEP 8 API.
2to3 would rewrite 'import threading3k' to 'import threading' and
everything would work (it would warn about 'import threading' in 2.6
code).
