This module is only useful in the standard library if it is available on all systems. If it is not available on all systems, it may just as well be available from PyPI only. Now, as it needs to be available on Windows, I want to see the actual Windows support, else we would have to block the release until Windows support is available, possibly then reverting the module because no Windows support is forthcoming. So it's easier not to commit in the first place. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6715> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
