Hi!
Has anyone added special syntax to allow writing numeric literals with
physical units? So you can write 12m + 34cm, and would get 12.34m.
My question is how would you modify the BNF the most sensible way to
allow for this? The above example is simple, but think of 42 km/h.

15:00 UTC in order for the binaries to be built and uploaded. The

Good idea, I'll change that,

Hello,
We have polished out PEP 376 and its code prototype at Distutils-SIG.
It seems to fullfill now all the requirements,
so I am mailing it here again, for a new round of feedback, if needed.
