I see uses of nb_long in Object/abstract.c and Modules/_struct.c, but no others in the core. I think the first can be removed, and the second changed to nb_int.

[Python-Dev] Python 3.0 Porting information
I think we need to make sure that Google becomes better aware of the solutions to the problem expressed in http://mcjeff.blogspot.com/2009/01/python-30-porting-efforts.html While the author didn't, in my opinion, exercise due Google diligence there are some valid points in the post. Unfortunately the direct descendants of http://wiki.python.org/moin/PortingToPy3k don't seem to be receiving much attention (i.e. they remain a framework rather than solid information). Do we need to recruit community support to get this stuff moving? Experience suggests that "if we build it" they will not come unless and until they are led by the nose. regards Steve -- Steve Holden+1 571 484 6266 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC http://www.holdenweb.com/ ___ 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
