I am quite glad to see that I am not the only one that cares for such topic. And I think Guido is wrong here, but I can also see there's little hope in fixing this Python wart. We'll probably have to see and use another language to see this problem/bug fixed in some way (and maybe other issues added, no language is perfect). Python is now mature, being 15+ years old, so it's also rigid. Computer languages, just like living species, resist change, and usually you need a new language/species to fix some larger warts/bugs/design problems. Python3 fixes tons of problems of Python2.x, but it's almost a new language :-) Bye, bearophile -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
