I think this qualifies as a new port. In the past, we have avoided adding new ports in bugfix releases. As for adding it to 2.7/3.1: I'm also skeptical. We have a (fairly) new policy of not adding support for minority platforms, based on the belief that it is more effort than it is worth. Now, ARM in itself might be considered a minority platform (for Python); however, I can accept continued support for ARM based on the number of units available in the real world, and based on the fact that the chip is still being manufactured. Whether we need to support some old Linux ABI, I really don't know, and I'm -0. _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1762561> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
