You can count me in that large proportion. 8^) By the way, after thinking about it a bit, here's a good name for Python3000: Newton1 The appended 1 serves to disambiguate the name from that of a late, great scientist. It could be called N1 for short. The 1 also serves to identify the major version. If it ever undergoes a major revision (as in Python3000), it could then be called Newton2, but that would not be done more than once per decade or so. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
