If we ask users if they want to keep OS/2 and VMS, I expect that at least someone would like to keep them. But it doesn't solve the maintenance problem: we need maintainers (developers), not users. If a "call for support" can help us to maintain these OSes, nice. But I don't want to touch these OSes (I want to do less work, not more work :-)), and so I don't want to write such call. If you feel concerned by this issue, contact Doug to write the call ;-) Victor _______________________________________________ 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
