The language reference is also the language specification. I don't know what you mean by 'formal', so presumably it doesn't qualify :) That said, if there are places that are not correctly marked as implementation specific, those are bugs in the reference and should be fixed. There almost certainly are still such bugs, and I suspect MicroPython can help us fix them, just as PyPy did/does. --David _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
