If it isn't Python changing, it's the operating system, the processor architecture, the network connectivity, whatever. Only very abstract and generic applications may survive a long time without being affected by changes in the environment. You choose to develop a very specific tool tied to the specifics of memory management in Python (a really good idea, btw), but unfortunately you'll have to adapt it to changes in the language. > I don't want that fuzz.

You said that a C program doesn't have to be changed when the compiler/language changes, and I refuted that assertion. > I just like want to write a program that will stay working.

Esp. 2 -> 3 Bad luck, you just decided to write your program in the transition phase... In a couple years, I think 3 will be reasonably as stable as 2.x today. -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
