Apparently you do not speak for all core devs on this issue, so please don't pretend that you do. Oh, and just a small tidbit of info -- it took longer to research and write this email than it did to write the patch to remove "assret" checking [1]. Seems to me a lot of fuss could have been avoided by just acknowledging that a mistake may have been made, and asking for patches if anybody cared enough about it. -- ~Ethan~ [1] http://bugs.python.org/issue24656 _______________________________________________ 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
