That would be well outside the scope of this newsgroup, and if you cannot see the reaons for this yourself, I am afraid that I won't be able to convince you anyway. > Exactly.

That completely depends on how you look at code-sharing. My impression always was that the Python community in general does regard code-sharing as A Good Thing. It is not as if we were talking about forcing people to share code. Just about creating/keeping an environment that makes this easily possible and encourages it. That *is* something I regard as good and which therefore, for me, forms an argument against this PEP -- wether you share that opinion or not. -- René -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
