Speaking from the PyPy perspective, syntax is not really a problem. It, for example, took me ~1 week to more PyPy from 2.5 to 2.7 syntax. A more interesting moratorium for us would be one on tests that are not implementation portable. :) -- Regards, Benjamin _______________________________________________ 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
