I think a ValueError would be best. That way if we decide to give it some meaning in the future, we know it won't change any working code. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1588> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
