Gabriel Genellina <gagsl-...@yahoo.com.ar> added the comment: Ok, imagine for a moment that your patch is accepted and applied. Python runs in a wide variety of systems. Now imagine that, in a few of them, it stops running. What would you say to defend your changes? "I have no idea why, but it works for me!". I have no doubt your changes would be reverted in two nanoseconds, and your chances of getting a second patch accepted would drop near zero.
I understand your project and hope you successfully complete your goals, but it seems it's not madure enough yet. At this stage, blogging about your progresses and writing some sort of recipe would be more adequate, until you get a system that builds cleanly and passes most (if not all) test cases. This applies to your other pending patches too. PS: I don't know the English term, but here in Argentina (Spanish) the way you "fix" bugs would be called "chapuza". No offense intended. _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4956> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
