Sorry, I disagree. We've never had to do that for any of the C accelerator code in Python's history. Also, we already have a comment at the point the import is done (and that didn't seem to matter to the OP who is just mad about the design choice itself). The comment is in the same place as it is in heapq.py for example. If you want to add a general FAQ entry, that would be fine. Also, keep in mind that that the code is tested in our test suite, and it is active in other versions of Python (it is not useless as the OP suggests). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25315> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
