(It's not _that_ of > an effort, really!) good god. actually helping people with legacy conversions. amazing. remember it has to break (fail) at compile-time. ok, more to the point, it has to *always* fail. so throw a popup / fail on import. so if someone even does "import pyjamas.log" it should go "barffff" the last thing you want is someone to deploy a live application, never test the "error" path, and have a user throw up a "barfff" fail message. l.
