I previously completed the port at my old company (but could not release it), and I have a good bit of it completed for us at http://hg.python.org/sandbox/vs2010port/. That repo is a little bit behind 'default' but updating it shouldn't pose any problems. _______________________________________________ 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
