Python3 is not backwards-compatible. You would need a lot of redundant code and version checks to keep code compatible with *both* 2.x and 3.x; and I doubt devs are willing to require projects to upgrade to Python 3.x... -- Nicolas _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
