I understood that Christian Heimes and/or Donald Stufft are interested to work on a PEP.

IMHO the bug is now fixed in 3.5.2 as I explained at: http://haypo-notes.readthedocs.io/pep_random.html#status-of-python-3-5-2 > THE PROBLEM > > Issue #26839: > > http://bugs.python.org/issue26839 > > (warning, the issue is now astonishingly long, and exhausting to read, and > various bits of it are factually wrong) You may want to read my summary: http://haypo-notes.readthedocs.io/pep_random.html I'm not interested to reply to Larry's email point per point. IHMO a formal PEP is now required for Python 3.6 (to enhance os.urandom and clarify Python behaviour before urandom is initialized). Python 3.5.2 is fixed, there is no more urgency ;-) Victor _______________________________________________ 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
