Guido is incorrect. I've already stated what's wrong. That's different from saying I want to change how Python behaves *now*, of course. But to say “there's nothing wrong with that” dismisses the problems without addressing them. Guido isn't perfect, so that's okay. -- \ “Telling pious lies to trusting children is a form of abuse, | `\ plain and simple.” —Daniel Dennett, 2010-01-12 | _o__) | Ben Finney -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
