Stefan Krah stefan-use...@bytereef.org added the comment: I wrote to the maintainer of vmspython, and he said this: Python on VMS is actively maintained, for example you can take a look at http://www.vmspython.org/ and http://www.vmspython.org/History Our plan are to port, this year 2.7, then 3.x. So the vmspython project looks active, but that still does not help us of course. I hope Jean-François will comment here. -- nosy: +pieronne, skrah ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue11918 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Martin v. Löwis mar...@v.loewis.de added the comment: How can we help you ? Please contribute a full, complete, working VMS port to Python 3.3. I never understood whether the code that we have is supposed to be complete, in the sense that you get a working Python out of it (rather, I understood that this never was the case - that you always needed additional pieces to make it do something useful). Another step to demonstrate ongoing support would be to contribute a VMS build slave, so that committers without VMS (which is nearly 100%) can actually find out whether it continues to work after changes. I'd also like to see a dedicated maintainer nominated - a person who'll respond to bug reports about the VMS support; if that person ever leaves, and no new maintainer is nominated, the code would again be up for removal. If no demonstrable improvement is contributed to Python 3.3, I'd continue with the PEP 11 process. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue11918 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue11918] Drop OS/2 and VMS support in Python 3.3
STINNER Victor victor.stin...@haypocalc.com added the comment: The patch looks fine; please add a reference to PEP 11 into the error messages Ok, done. Our plan are to port, this year 2.7, then 3.x. VMS is unsupported in 3.3 and the code will be removed in 3.4. If anyone comes with patches to have a working VMS version before Python 3.4, we can support VMS again and just forget the PEP 11 deprecation. Would be possible to publish a notice in python insider blog? Sure, but I don't want to write it. Contact Doug Hellmann for that. Marc Andre Lemburg is also volunteer to write such notice. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue11918 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

New submission from STINNER Victor victor.stin...@haypocalc.com: Because we don't have any OS/2 and VMS maintainer for Python 3, I propose to drop OS/2 and VMS support in Python 3.3: OSes unsupported in 3.3, code removed in 3.4 (see the PEP 11 for the process). -- components: Interpreter Core messages: 134384 nosy: haypo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Drop OS/2 and VMS support in Python 3.3 versions: Python 3.3 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue11918 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

STINNER Victor victor.stin...@haypocalc.com added the comment: @loewis: Would you like to review the patch? You wrote on python-dev: For OS/2, I propose to syntactically break the makefile and For VMS, I *think* the build process is configure-based (but I may misremember); if so, adding an exit into configure.in would be appropriate. But I don't know how to do that. I added two #error for each OS, I hope that it is enough. But I am unable to test my patch, I don't have access to these OSes :-) -- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file21779/unsupport_os2_vms.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue11918 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
