Brett Cannon added the comment: While saying "default path importer" vs. "meta path finder" somewhat muddles the term "importer", it definitely gets the point across that PathFinder does a lot more than any other default meta path finder. While _we_ might know that import does nothing more than call a method on sys.meta_path and has no concept of sys.path and friends, most people will consider the default path importer as part of import's semantics and thus not make the distinction.
IOW I like Nick's suggestion. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15295> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
