http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revision Why even define a number? I causes people to argue about it. It is a variable. I meant a "Reference" Table of equipment/devices. Most Auto shop have a "Cross-Reference book". Also Johnny Cash built a vehicle from 30 years or so different years parts(or I know people who do/can). Reference PEP8 standard to: A Technical manual per say. If not make it simple. A multiple of 10, 80 being the closest int and also errors on 79 devices. Which then said device should be added to the reference manual. Or 70. Also the pro/cons of this argument should be added to a "Quick-Reference". Sorry if my opinion was not clear, the first time I posted. As I have been answered before, you CANNOT edit posts here. But you could with python... -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
