I can see the motivation for this. I would suggest to keep deprecating things in 3.x, BUT keeping the deprecated stuff around (maybe reimplementing them using the new stuff) until we decide is safe to axe it, instead of the regular 3.x deprecates, 3.(x+1) cleans up. In this way we can keep the improvements, while not leaving people just migrating from 2.7 behind. The problem will be to decide when to do the cleanup... - -- Jesus Cea Avion _/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/_/ j...@jcea.es - http://www.jcea.es/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ jabber / xmpp:j...@jabber.org _/_/ _/_/ _/_/_/_/_/ . _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "Things are not so easy" _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "My name is Dump, Core Dump" _/_/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "El amor es poner tu felicidad en la felicidad de otro" - Leibniz -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQCVAwUBTYJcQplgi5GaxT1NAQIeawQAgC3kpmS8RoYoeRn6BRFKTOSEKc6edafY NVKDZ+NAZzTeYqJcr0symc+9A+5J92fJQq2n6tz1/K2yAzS/m1dudAXK7YIb1Ldc EwX8JB2osvCgGM5PFefhGOLZ0VrrlWnHQTEviU5GilGNHzCcbEgNj/3BPnEyCNyv QPmlcyeN+eQ= =xidU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ 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
