We already have multiple distributions of Python: CPython, IronPython, and Jython (and there's at least one more). We even have multiple distributions of CPython, what with Active State doing their own and the MacPython distribution. I'm not proposing a fundamental change in the world, I'm suggesting an addition that would satisify the OPs needs. The "standard" distributor is whichever one your organization settles on when it comes time to choose a Python distribution. > In an international project I see othe problems as well -- cost, logistics, > S&H, customs, etc. None of which has stopped linux from following this path. <mike -- Mike Meyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
