Comment:

 Hello,

 1. I think that the class `CartesianProductPosets` would better be
 somewhere in `combinat/posets` rather in `sets/cartesian_product`. It is
 always better to split files.

 2. Why is the following not a poset
 {{{
 sage: P = Poset((srange(3), lambda left, right: left <= right))
 sage: cartesian_product([P,P]).category()
 Category of Cartesian products of finite enumerated sets
 }}}

 3. The argument `order` in the class `CartesianProductPosets` is
 mandatory. While the following just works
 {{{
 sage: C = cartesian_product([ZZ, ZZ], extra_category=Posets())
 }}}
 actually not
 {{{
 sage: TestSuite(C).run()
 Failure in _test_not_implemented_methods:
 Traceback (most recent call last):
 ...
 AssertionError: Not implemented method: le
 ------------------------------------------------------------
 The following tests failed: _test_not_implemented_methods
 }}}

 4. As I already said, it would make sense to have the product order as a
 default since it is '''the''' cartesian product (in a categorical sense
 when morphisms are increasing functions).
