Well... IMOHO it would be "natural and obvious" if those were in different modules written by different developers. Here I think that "practicality beats purity", though. (although I'm not sure the person who originally wrote that sentence can really be trusted ;-)) > About acquire(), this is a bugfix - I'm not looking here to change > code that isn't broken ;-) Agreed. Just wanted to mention it before I'd totally forget about it. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19158> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
