De-lurking. Especially since the ultimate goal is better interoperability, I feel like an implementation that people can play with would help guide the few remaining decisions. To help test the various options you could temporarily add a _allow_bytes=GLOBAL_CONFIG_OPTION default argument to both pathlib.__fspath__() and os.fspath(), with distinct configurable defaults for each. In the spirit of Python 3 I feel like bytes might not be needed in practice, but something like this with defaults of False will allow people to easily test all the various options. _______________________________________________ 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
