That sounds like a good plan to me, and if that's going to be the plan for the foreseeable future I think the devguide needs bit of an update. In particular, with this plan the absolute requirement of having another core developer review a patch before commit can be relaxed somewhat, since the RM would be reviewing any post-RC patches in any case to decide if they should make Final. Either way, some clarification would be good; I have a couple of issues that I'd like to commit, but I'm wary of doing so until current protocol is better defined. -- Zach _______________________________________________ python-committers mailing list python-committers@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-committers
