If you go back and look at Guido's Python 3000 Process email he said that the change could occur in 2.6 and then be done for 3000. Renaming modules is not that hard to make backwards-compatible by having old names fully import the new name directly (``from py.dev.pdb import *``), especially if we put everything under the 'py' package and thus remove any possible name clashing with the existing arrangement. So I posted to python-dev since I think we could do it in 2.6 and then remove a ton of old modules we don't want anymore in 3000. -Brett _______________________________________________ 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
