the comments you are referring to - that windows is not a priority, that they currently have no testing on windows machines, etc. i quote, for example: "None of the three of us have Windows machines, nor do we particularly want to acquire them :), and Windows support isn't going to be a big priority." > Saying-no-to-fud ly, which part of "i wonder" don't you understand? i'm not saying it is true, i'm just discussing the possibility. i am getting a little tired of people here acting so defensively... i'm discussing a programming language, not the size of your dick. andrew _______________________________________________ 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
