I agree, but some of this responsibility has to fall to users. Sometimes these breakages are bugs, pure and simple. Our tests don't catch everything. This is why it's really, really important to get as many alpha/beta testers as possible. Had the issues been brought up before 2.4 was released, we could have addressed them. Basically, if you care about these things, test before we release. That way the issues can be addressed. If you don't care enough to test and get bitten by a problem, quit whining, you had your chance. I have no sympathy for someone who is only willing to whine after the fact, but unwilling to do any work. That's really not helpful. n -- PS People do this all the time in politics too. They complain about someone, when they couldn't even be bothered to vote. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
