Nick Coghlan added the comment: Please don't emit a deprecation warning for loaders that only implement load_module - there are still things load_module can do that create/exec can't, and it's still possible it will remain the long term API for those use cases.
Plus builtins and extensions are still loaded with load_module - we can't deprecate an API we're still using. I'm actually still -0 on doing any programmatic deprecations in 3.4 at all. What maintenance burden are we eliminating for ourselves that justifies the pain we're inflicting on users? I want import system specialists to be *excited* about PEP 451, but if we deprecate everything and *force* them to migrate immediately (rather than giving them until 3.5 before they get warnings), they're going to hate it :( ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19713> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
