Merging the Python 3 modifications into the Python 2 code would mean to make a lot of changes to the stable Python 2 code. There is a high likeliness that the currently stable Python 2 code would not work correctly in some rare cases any more. So, it is better to leave the stable Python 2 package as is, and create a separate Python 3 package -- as it is also done for a lot of other packages. -- Best regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Med vennlig hilsen ======================================================================= Thomas Dreibholz Simula Research Laboratory Simula Innovation AS, Network Systems Group Visiting address: Martin Linges vei 17, 1364 Fornebu, Norway Mailing address: P.O.Box 134, 1325 Lysaker, Norway ----------------------------------------------------------------------- E-Mail: dre...@simula.no Homepage: http://simula.no/people/dreibh =======================================================================
