I think we really need to do something about these kinds of deprecations. IMHO, there is no need to deprecate an entry point if the code has just moved to some other location in the stdlib. A simple note in the documentation and the NEWS file should be enough to get programmers to use the new location for code that doesn't have to work with older Python versions. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Dec 14 2009) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: Try our new mxODBC.Connect Python Database Interface for free ! :::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
