Hmmm, I just realised that it might seem that this was aimed at Paul directly. I'm sorry, I wasn't intending to imply that he's a Python 3 hater, or that anyone who mentions even the tiniest little disagreement or difficulty with Python 3 is a hater. That wasn't my intention, and I'm sorry if I gave it to anyone. Of course there will be difficulties during the transition period, which is why Python 2.7 will get a longer-than-normal release cycle. If people don't publicly say what those difficulties are, they won't be fixed. Sometimes the fix is just "hang in there, you'll learn the new ways of doing things", and sometimes they will require new code in Python itself. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
