New submission from Tcll: About a week ago I read you were also dropping support for WinXP.
This will cause issues for me as I don't support newer Win (or should I say MS-RAT infested) OS's I use linux now, but I still use XP as a testing interface for Windows. (I will not install any newer windows as I prefer my freedom when MS pushes their button) I hope this changes development aims to continue supporting WinXP... if not, I can no longer consider python as cross-platform, and will be forced to use an outdated cross-platform interpreter. I'm still looking into how to disable the MS-RAT with python, as a friend of my friend has already done it. my friend wasn't interested in asking him how when he did it, and getting in contact with him is quite difficult. if (and only if) I can disable MS's RAT, I will gladly use a newer windows as a testing interface, so long as I can hack it like XP. (I like doing cool things to my OS, which is what I mean by "hacking") The reason I chose 2.7 for the python version is due to me being a PyOpenGL programmer and that the extension runs faster in 2.7 ---------- components: Windows messages: 229597 nosy: Tcll, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: WinXP concerns type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22661> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
