Hi folks, The Fedora 26 Alpha currently includes our downstream patch backporting PEP 538 to Python 3.6 - an update to CPython to implicitly coerce the legacy C locale to C.UTF-8 as the Python interpreter process starts up.
I'm still aiming to have that PEP officially accepted for 3.7 upstream before the F26 beta deadline (currently May 16th), but hit a slight hitch recently when Barry Warsaw had to withdraw as BDFL-Delegate due to a lack of sufficient time to devote to the review process. Fortunately, Naoki Inada has agreed to take over the role, and Guido signed off on the updated delegation today: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2017-April/147796.html So with any luck, we should be able to get this change explicitly approved by upstream within the next couple of weeks. Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncogh...@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia _______________________________________________ python-devel mailing list -- python-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
