+1.

Me neither, which is why I repeated that part ;-) A development branch is exactly the right thing to do at this point, and Stefan needs commit privs to work on that. _______________________________________________ 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
