Hmm. I take this back: if complex were made 'new-style' in 2.7, then it *would* be possible to write fairly obvious code (not using coerce or __coerce__) that operated in the same way in both 2.7 and 3.2. So I still think it's worth considering. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5211> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
