I would like to see public discussion about this, especially in the light of the ssl module improvements in Python 3.2. It is not obvious that duplicate APIs in the stdlib are a good idea, especially when they are not compatible with each other. It also means that the current pyOpenSSL maintainer (Jean-Paul) should agree to do maintenance directly in the stdlib rather than in a separate repo. > The idea would then be to add the crypto routines to pyOpenSSL and > have that added to the stdlib as say openssl package. This sounds a bit ridiculous. Why not add the crypto routines directly to the stdlib? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8998> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
