I mentioned before that IPy's insistence on receiving masked out networks was one of the main reasons I wrote ipaddr to begin with. Having ipaddr mimic this behavior would make it significantly less useful. Removing functionality in the name of avoiding confusion doesn't make sense when the same confusion can be alleviated w/o the loss.
We're suggesting moving that functionality (accepting a non-masked IP plus netmask and returning the corresponding Network object) into a different constructor, not eliminating the functionality. --David _______________________________________________ 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
