The revert indiscriminately reverted new features and bug and doc fixes, some of which have been fixed again later when rediscovered. I never did a systematic review but I could. One of the most painful difference between 2.7 and 3.x is the use of urllib vs. httplib in the register and upload commands, which does not let me port patches easily. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13994> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
