Brett Cannon added the comment: I don't quite follow what you think is wrong with https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/tip/Lib/concurrent/futures/__init__.py . It looks totally fine to me.
And I should mention that you shouldn't follow PEP 8 like it's in stone and the only way to format code. The PEP is a set of guidelines only and not rules (this is a long-standing position of python-dev on PEP 8). For instance, I don't agree with the absolute import recommendation and do not follow it in my own code nor in importlib (it makes vendoring impossible without modifying the import statements). I think the key thing to take away from this whole discussion is "don't have circular imports" is the key practice to follow. And if someone wants to propose a patch to update some documentation to point out that `from ... import ...` may work in some situations where `import ...; ... = ...` doesn't then I will personally review such a patch. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25294> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
