No, I'm implying that mentioning Python 3, 3to2, and 2to3 all together in a discussion about how to migrate can easily give the false impression that they're all equally supported by the Python developers. That 3to2 is *not* supported officially is certainly something I'd want to know if a Python core developer was recommending it to me to reassure me about the migration path to Python 3, and I didn't get that impression from the way it's been casually referenced in this discussion. -- \ “Never express yourself more clearly than you are able to | `\ think.” —Niels Bohr | _o__) | Ben Finney _______________________________________________ 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
