For a good look at the realities of getting patches accepted and committed, see this thread on python-dev: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2004-October/049490.html Bottom line: the committers are volunteers and they work on what they want to. Often they prefer writing code to reviewing and applying patches. Kent _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
