Raising issues is always useful and appropriate. It's up to Larry Hastings to decide whether he personally needs to do more work. I suspect he probably will, though. I knew these changes were risky on the lead time given, even though I don't do Windows, and I'm not a core Python developer. I would hope that Steve Dower and Larry were at least as well aware of what they were getting into, and there are a lot of Windows users we *want* to support well. (*Not* "have to", and YMMV. But the Python developer community clearly has a working consensus on supporting Windows well.) _______________________________________________ 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
