If you're asking if it runs unmodified under Python2 I do not know as of yet. I would need to dust off a Python2 site, apply the patch, configure it for redis, and test.
That might happen in a week or two as I don't have a Python2/redis site right now so I need to do some work to create a test bench for this. If someone else has a Python2/redis site already they may be able to test it quicker. -- Joe On Monday, September 9, 2019 at 3:00:50 PM UTC-7, Jim S wrote: > > Is it backward compatible as well? > > -Jim > > On Mon, Sep 9, 2019 at 4:54 PM Joe Barnhart <joe.b...@gmail.com > <javascript:>> wrote: > >> YES.
