You'll need a push here, too. And at that point it may fail. It may be the case that only Georg can push to 3.2, I don't remember for sure. (Note that it may not have been Antoine who did the push of that patch to 3.2...if Georg used transplant, for example, it would show as Antoine's commit, IIUC.) I agree that it would cause less developer mind-overhead if the branch were merged. Georg has been scarce lately...if the branch is locked, there are people besides him who can unlock it (Antoine, for one). --David _______________________________________________ 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
