> I'm at most lukewarm; I'd be willing to look at a patch to the C code > in the py3k-struni branch, plus unit tests though. -- GvR at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.python- 3000.devel/8732 I read this as a rejection for 2.x series. For py3k, this is a premature optimization. Current py3k implementation is likely to be optimized for regular size integers at some point. This patch will only introduce more code to be changed then. If this is not ready to be rejected for 2.x, let's wait for resolution of issue1540617 since it may result in backporting of py3k range implementation. ---------- nosy: +belopolsky _____________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1766304> _____________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
