I can't tell if you're being unpleasant or not. If so, I'd point out that if your user base isn't going to be off of 2.5 for the next couple of years that you have little stake in 3.x one way or the other. If not, fear not- that happy day will come. Geremy Condra -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
