I agree, but improvement is always possible.

Maybe. But a lot of the "Core Dev" links

Kerrick did post a rationale in the last thread [1], but it never made
it into the PE
Hi,
I finished the implementation of the PEP 410 ("Use decimal.Decimal
type for timestamps"). The PEP:
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0410/
The implementation:

No, you are missing my point. I assume you proposed (even though you
didn't say so explicitly) that parse_qs gets an opt-in API change to
limit the number of parameters. If that is added, it will have no
effect on any existing applications, as they will all currently not
pass that parameter.
No,

It's an API change, so it is
a) in violation with current practice for bug fix releases, and
We are already violating a lot of things in order to fix this issue.
Not really. There isn't any significant API change in the proposed patch
(the ones that are there are safe to ignore in applications

Please wait with that judgment until you see the rationale of the PEP
author.

Hello,
Given the randomization fix will ship disabled, I thought it would be
nice to add a maximum element count argument to urlparse.parse_qs, with
a default value of e.g. 1000 (including in bugfix releases). What do
you think?

Antoine.

There actually *is* an easy way, in regular ls: look at the link count.
It comes out of ls -l by default, and if it's >1,

PEP 394 [1] aims to document our collective recommendation for
allowing shebang lines to specifically request some version of 2.x,
without requiring that it be exactly 2.7 (or 2.6, etc).
I'd let this drift for a while, but the imminent release of 2.7.3
