One can also create a new group for "really old stuff", place a comment that describes the original group (something like "PreviousGroup..."), then when closing/wont fix/etc., move the object into the new group. Then we can rename/reuse those 2.1 and 2.2 categories as desired. If one wants to search for items that used to be in some group, one can use the search functionality of sourceforge. Pain in the rear, but it is a solution to the 'problem' of having 2.1 and 2.2 groups. - Josiah P.S. I personally wouldn't do this; I would rename as Fred suggests. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
