Wow, we are now getting close to a portage tree /dev-python/ audit and discussion? >From the gentoo-dev list:: > dev-python/configshell > dev-python/rtslib I looked at whether these should be owned by the Python team, but I don't think they should be. It looks like they're low-level utilities that happen to be written in Python. As such, they probably shouldn't even be in dev-python. (OH)- (S0)- close..... Really, somebody with a bit more python expertise than me should really put forward this discussion on gentoo_dev..... James
