I'm not exactly sure what you mean by this, but it might be agreeable to me: I'm completely okay with adding Python 3 only dependencies and even *code/features* so long as it's done without breaking backwards-compatibility. When it comes to sage-the-distribution (which I sense is where most of this friction is coming from, and yet another reason to better separate sage from the sage-the-distribution), if there are dependencies you want to update that are Python 3-only I'd say go for it, but make it a separate SPKG so that previous versions of the dependency can still work on Python 2 builds. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
