People are getting ahead of themselves with the stdlib breakout proposal. There will be a PEP explaining how we proposed to have it work for CPython, what changes to the build will be, etc. But the download for CPython will not change nor will a checkout in a major way as we will simply require the forest extension or subrepos from Mercurial. For now, let's please refrain on worrying about this topic until there is a proposal to discuss. -Brett _______________________________________________ stdlib-sig mailing list stdlib-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/stdlib-sig
