My apologies to those that feel annoyed I reply to one of my own post (on December 22), without any other intervenor in between.
The pre-PEP has received some attention, including some positive one from GvR. Those interested to see his initial response can see it here: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-3000/2006-December/005249.html Then, on December 23, he wrote: --------------- BTW, can someone clean up and check in the proto-PEP and start working on an implementation or patch? Should be really simple. I'd like to see a patch for the refactoring tool (sandbox/2to3) as well. --Guido --------------- I take this as a very positive sign. Unfortunately, there appear to have been no follow-up since. Perhaps it is because it was so late in the year, and when everyone came back, the issue had been forgotten. In any event, I plan to go to Pycon 2007 and, if it hasn't been followed-up by then, do some lobbying on behalf of all those on edu-sig who have manifested their support for this issue in the past. André P.S. Crunchy will be leading the way: I am planning to have support for input()/raw_input() in the next release, and the semantic will be that they will behave identically (i.e. return a string). It is already implemented for the embedded interpreter in svn.
