I've seen alot of people bitching and moaning about CML2 and mostly it seems to be a need for Python 2.x that is really upsetting people. I don't know the status of the port to C, but I do remember that Eric said he had looked at doing it in Python 1.5 language, but decided against it. Would it make people happier if we could convice (or help) Eric to move back a version in Python? Also, but the time 2.5 (really 2.6) is released and CML2 is the defacto configuration language, don't you all think that Python 2.x will be a standard part of the distros? Hmmm, I've just shot my own arguement in the foot here... dang. As for the others who are complaining about how CML2 will ruin the world, bring a plague of locusts, and "You'll have to pry make menuconfig from my cold, dead hands", have you *tried* CML2 yet? I have, and once I complained enough about what I thought was a mis-feature, Eric did fix it. Moving forward requires some pain and adjustment from time to time, and I can't imagine that all you core kernel people who keep compiling kernels all the time, can't take the time to learn something new. Isn't that our strength, being able to learn?
