Eric V. Smith added the comment: There's a link in the PEP to the discussion on why it was rejected. There's a lot to read in the thread (I just spent 30 minutes re-reading it!).
I'm going to close this. If you'd like to re-open the discussion with new insights, I'd suggest posting to python-ideas. But, given the existing discussion referenced by the PEP, I don't have high hopes, unless you have a compelling use case (which is always possible, of course). ---------- resolution: -> rejected stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27070> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
