It's even worse than that, because adding 'nonlocal' is not a bugfix. So to be committed to the repo, it has to be approved for either 2.7 branch (which is in bugfix-only maintenance mode) or 2.8 branch (which does not exist). Good luck. :) ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
