Last time I looked it was an incredibly complicated piece of code that would have to be refactored considerably before it would be maintainable by the core developers. I never did manage to get a good understanding of the code, but I expect that a lot of the complexity exists so that it works for all Python versions. The stdlib version shouldn't need this -- it should only care about providing a stable API that works with the current version. -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/) _______________________________________________ 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
