The real problem with categories like this is that if they only indicate that the package has been tested (and the tests pass) with that implementation of Python, there's no way to tell if the tests failed with another implementation, or if they simply weren't run. I'd use them if we could also indicate that the package doesn't work with certain implementations. This would also apply to some other groups other classifiers, such as those for the operating system. Perhaps there should be something like a "not :: <classifier>" as well, to indicate known non-support for operating system or Python implementation (or possibly other things, but not sure what else at this time). -Fred -- Fred L.
