I am not committing this in sandbox because I don't see this a big improvement. Datetime comparisons are tricky due to date/datetime inheritance. I think it is best not to touch it. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file17842/issue7989-cmp.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7989> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
