Beyond the moratorium
Hi all. I know, maybe I'm just lazily speculating, but I'm curious about what's next, in python, when GvR will stop the moratorium and will let changes in the language. I don't know what to expect... some syntax sugar about concurrent programming? static types? an erlang-style bang (!) process message passing? -- By ZeD -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I don't know what to expect... some syntax sugar about concurrent programming? static types? an erlang-style bang (!) process message passing? One of the reasons the moratorium was established was to reduce the time spent in overly speculative discussions about various features that will most likely not end up in the language anyway. Also note that your examples above span both the language and the stdlib, which are put under different constraints by the moratorium. Stefan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
