2014-01-02 Thread Nick Coghlan
I started putting together a list of standard library modules that are also available on PyPI for the https://wiki.python.org/moin/Python2orPython3 wiki page. Dariusz Suchojad suggested it might be easier if there was a suitable classifier to mark such modules rather than trying to keep a list on
