New submission from Florent Gallaire fgalla...@gmail.com:
Hi,
The platform module could provide a boolean to know easily if a system is posix
or not.
The expected result, when the system is posix :
import platform
platform.isposix
True
otherwise :
import platform
platform.isposix
False

It could, but why introduce this redundancy with `os.name`?

I second what Jean-Paul said. os.name is well established and I don't think a
second way to get the same information is needed.
Thanks for the suggestion and patch, Florent.
