can safely say that compress is gone!
The worst you are doing by removing compress support is getting the
user of some ancient platform to download one of the binaries here
first.

I heard rumours of a pexpect port to Windows but I don't know how far
that has progressed.
A cross platform async subprocess would indeed be a boon!

I think a compiler would have to be pretty stupid not to take this
optimisation... But then there are some pretty stupid compilers out
there!

hing which can
run across networks of machines has security implications and I didn't
see these spelt out in the documentation.
Networked running should certainly be disabled by default and need
explicitly enabling by the user - I'd hate for a new version of python
to come with a remote e
.
Perhaps you should separate these two things into two PEPs and
implementations?

I'm assuming that we do reST all the python documentation which would
make it easier.

For my application caching 0.0 is by far the most important. 0.0 has
~200,000 references - the next highest reference count is only about ~200.

I think you'll find that even in the no memory saving case a few
cycles spent on comparison with 0.0 (or maybe a few other values) will
speed up programs.

I have to say I was surprised to find out how many copies of 0.0 there

In my application I'm receiving all the zeros from a server over TCP
as ASCII and these are being float()ed in python.

there are so many 'more' of them than integers and defining small

hex() and oct() another parameter,
base, so you'd do hex(123123123, 2). Perhaps a little
counter-intuitive, but if you were looking for base conversion
functions you'd find hex() pretty quickly and the documentation would
mention the other parameter.
