Jython 2.7.1 is about to be released, with full support of upstream pip (9.0.1), and corresponding vendored libraries, including requests.
However, this proposed new feature for CPython 2.7, and its usage, will likely break pip on Jython 2.7.x going forward, given that future versions of pip will depend on requests requiring MemoryBIO. Or am I wrong in this analysis? This means we have to get back on the 2.7 development treadmill just as we were about to focus on finally working on Jython 3 ( https://github.com/jython/jython3 previews this work). Given that this proposed new feature is for 2.7 to support event loop usage and not a security fix, I'm -1 on this change. In particular, it runs counter to the justification policy stated in PEP 466. - Jim On Wed, May 31, 2017 at 7:25 AM, Cory Benfield <c...@lukasa.co.uk> wrote: > > > On 31 May 2017, at 08:42, Victor Stinner <victor.stin...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > > Hi, > > > > I wrote a PEP based on the previous thread "Backport ssl.MemoryBIO on > > Python 2.7?".
