If you volunteer for this task, I have some suggestions: * target WSGI 1.1, not WSGI 2.0 * take the original WSGI 1.0 spec text * start to integrate all changes documented by Graham * I would really like to have changes integrates as a series of diff, using <del> and <ins> HTML elements. Unfortunately docutils seems to not have support for this, but should not be hard to implement. I can help. * You should keep a separate, unofficial document, with the rationale of the changes. You can just copy the content of Graham blog post, and reformatting it, if this is ok for Graham * For each of the main changea, start a thread on this mailing list asking for votation. If, after 1 week, there is no vote against it, consider it approved If we are really going to approve WSGI 1.1, I have a request: remove the ``write`` callable. Rationale: * it was added in WSGI 1.0 only for compatibility * new code does not use it * this will force applications under development that still use the ``write`` callable to be fixed. See work on Mercurial * it is very easy for current implementations to support both WSGI 1.0 and WSGI 1.1 * legacy application will continue to work * removing of the ``write`` callable will make middlewares more easy to write Thanks Manlio _______________________________________________ Web-SIG mailing list Web-SIG@python.org Web SIG: http://www.python.org/sigs/web-sig Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/web-sig/archive%40mail-archive.com
