Will 3.1 and 2.7 also be parallel releases? (I ask, not having read the 3xxx PEPS at all.) If yes, why? While I can see a case for 2.6/3.0 being in sync -- new features in 2.6 ease the transition to 3.0 -- I'd imagine that 3.1 would be better with a shorter cycle (6-9 months) because there are more possible rough edges to clean up. 3.1 would likely include bugfixes from the eventual 2.7, so 3.1 might also trigger 2.6.1, but I don't think there's any harm if 3.1 contains features or incompatible fixes that are unavailable to 2.x users. --amk _______________________________________________ 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
