The port of ElementTree to Python 3000 was done in the standard library only. The work was done back in 2006, 2007 and 2008. There was never a public version of ElementTree for Python 3 outside of the standard library. It is already a significant change from the upstream branch (many changes in the C extension code). Then when I enforced the same test suite for both implementation, I have fixed many things in the C extension module too. To my knowledge, these fixes were not included upstream. Since two years, there was regular maintenance of the package in the standard library, but none of the patch were integrated upstream. I hope it answers the question, -- Florent Xicluna _______________________________________________ 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
