Raymond Hettinger added the comment: Since 0000 is unambiguous, I propose leaving this alone unless some actual harm can be shown. The leading zeros for floats have proven to be harmless, 00.0 is valid. I see no reason to churn the code, go through deprecation effort, burden the docs with a X-stopped-being-valid-in-version-Y.
Unless Georg states that this was a flat-out mistake, I vote -1 based on there being insufficient motivation to undo an already released implementation decision. ---------- assignee: -> georg.brandl nosy: +georg.brandl, rhettinger _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24668> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
