I also feel the lack of a standard cryptography module in the core... even a *basic* one. At least rotor provided that, before it was deprecated. I (along with many other python users) write CGIs where the only extension modules that I can use are either pure python, or ones my web hoster is willing to install. Luckily my hoster will install modules without too much fuss - others aren't so lucky. Cryptography is a pretty 'standard' requirement these days.. and IMHO ought to be in the 'standard library'.
Without commenting (or reading properly) on this exchange... it does seem that many of '<F>'s contributions have been very bad tempered recently. Hmmm..... Regards, Fuzzy http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/index.shtml -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
