I would, however, use the term "legacy" to describe Python 2. It's no longer the "current stable" version - it's the "old stable", being maintained at its current state and not advanced further. It's not as insulting as "Luddite", and more accurate. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
