It also seems to me that it was a perfectly appropriate question for this list. The question was "why did you developers drop this (obscure) feature that we depend on in Python3?" I don't think that question would make sense on python-list. Granted, there's a fuzzy line there, but pylint is really development infrastructure :) The python-porting list would have been a good alternate choice. -- R.
