I would say that time clearly isn't the issue. Nine years IS enough... if it's a matter of time. But since the bugs are still there, it means that the problem is a lack of usage. Solution: Use it! Do the port to Python 3, and file those upstream bug reports. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
