It's not only the marketing. Having both releases in lock step means the development process is synchronized between trunk and py3k, that there is no loss of developer focus, and that merges/backports happen quite naturally. But I don't think it's an overwhelming argument either. I would value it at around 50 euro cents, not even the price of a good croissant ;-) Regards Antoine. _______________________________________________ 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
