Unless I misunderstood him, Larry gave me an unconditional exception for OrderedDict itself (as long as it is in before beta 2.) The condition only applied to making OrderedDict the default class definition namespace and adding cls.__definition_order__. Furthermore, the condition related to the semantic changes to Python, not to concerns about destabilizing Python. I don't mean to imply that Larry can't retract (or modify) the exceptions he's given me. In fact, if there is sufficient risk of de-stabilizing the release then I'd expect him to do so. However, ultimately that's his call as release manager; and I do not believe there is any greater risk now than what I explained to him in our discussions leading up to the exceptions I received. -eric > >> I'd still be glad to land both in 3.5 if Yury (or >> >> others) wants to make that case. The patches will be ready. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
