It's not going to be removed for many years - if ever. The % string formatting system is not deprecated in 3.0. For that very reason it must stay until 3.2. We don't have plans to deprecate it in 3.1 so it will stay at least until Python 3.3 which is to be released about 2014. Christian -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
