Hi Andreas, This is probably obvious, but I thought I’d mention it just in case — you can keep using tuples in your projects. We’re just talking about standardizing the docs and the default values. I understand your arguments and I can see how your experience led you there. However, like others, I believe that encouraging “almost immutable” values would provide a false sense of security and cannot be a substitute to an understanding of Python’s data model. By “almost immutable” I refer to the fact that even if settings.FOO is immutable you can still overwrite it, especially with += whose difference with append will be lost on someone who doesn’t understand the data model. -- Aymeric. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
