Hi, If not, next developer tring to merge will find some other unrelated code to merge, and she doesn't have the context knowledge to know what to do :-). Here’s a useful tip: instead of merging pulled changesets with your branch, do the reverse. That is: $ hg pull $ hg heads . # get only

[Python-Dev] Allowing import star with namespaces

2011-04-26 Thread Brendan Moloney
We all know that doing: from pkg import * is bad because it obliterates the 'pkg' namespace. So why not allow something like: import pkg.* This would still be helpful for interactive sessions while keeping namespaces around. Sorry if this has been brought up before, my searching didn't

[Python-Dev] Simple XML-RPC server over SSL/TLS

Hi there, I'm working on a project where I'm using Python's simple XML-RPC server [1] on Python 3.x. I need to use it over TLS, which is not possible directly, but it's pretty simple to implement extending few classes of the standard library. But what I would like to know, is if is there any

Okay, I finally found a little time and got roundup installed and operating. Only major complaint at this point is that the issue messages are presented in top-post format (argh). Does anyone know off the top of one's head what to change to put roundup in bottom-post (chronological) format?
