As I've said, I'm okay with this approach as long as we don't expose new public APIs in 2.7. That won't prevent other folks from using the private APIs, but we have no responsibility to support them. >- PyPI backport to make 2.7 adoption easier, and we'll continue >pestering redistributors to actually fund maintenance of Python 2.7's >SSL stack properly (and encourage customers of those redistributors to >do the same) Of course, lots of distributions are completely voluntary, so that kind of pestering falls on underfunded ears. ;) But a PyPI backport might still be useful since those third party packages can be distro-fied into current and backported channels. -Barry _______________________________________________ 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
