IMO the main issue with 2.6 is not handling bugs and patches but backporting 3.0 stuff. There's a spreadsheet somewhere that shows there's a huge amount of work to be done: http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=pCKY4oaXnT81FrGo3ShGHGg (if you can't access it, try the published version: http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pCKY4oaXnT81FrGo3ShGHGg ) > Incidentally, I'm planning to set up an SVK repos containing the GHOP > doc patches; that way they can stay sync'ed with 2.6 work.

IMO patches should just be applied to the trunk ASAP. -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/) _______________________________________________ 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
