Whoops, I got my timeline wrong (it did seem a little off when I wrote it - I think part of my brain was trying to tell me the dates didn't match up). I must have been thinking of something else I was working on recently that had Google's name in the header, most likely the abc module. So apologies for the confusion - just s/pgen2/abc/ in my example to make it line up with my intent :) Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncogh...@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia _______________________________________________ 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
