> But since people are adamant that they want this in sooner, Is this true for dictionaries specifically? Would there really be strong objections to continuing to swallow any Exception (not BaseException) raised by __eq__ ? Writing an __eq__ method that doesn't handle generic objects is sloppy, but it does happen, and I would hate to wrap all dictionaries of objects. -jJ _______________________________________________ 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
