Again, they haven't been "added". They have been there for a long time; it's just that they weren't documented before (either because it was overlooked or out of laziness, I don't know). And these 4 functions are definitely useful for extension modules. > HotPyModule_GetFilenameObject > HotPy_CompileStringExFlags Judging by the "HotPy" prefix, these aren't CPython functions ;) > I'm sure all of these can be justified, > its lack of process and review that bothers me. Process and review of new APIs usually go through the issue tracker. We also have a ton of new stdlib APIs in 3.2: http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.2.html If each of these new APIs went through a python-dev discussion, this mailing-list would become a huge mess.
