Interesting. Do you feel that Python 3.x should have been named something other than Python? I think that would rather have weakened both 3.x and 2.x by suggesting a fork, placing the two in competition, when the goal was to have one supersede the other, as is also the case here. _______________________________________________ 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
