Because "2.7 is likely the last release of the 2.x series", I think that it will maintained more longer than any other 2.x release. If we change the indentation in 3.x but not in 2.x, it will be harder to port the commits from 3.x to 2.7. I consider that the maintenance is very important for this last release, more important than "improving it". I prefer to work on new features on 3.x and keep 2.7 as stable as we can. -- Victor Stinner http://www.haypocalc.com/ _______________________________________________ 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
