<div class="moz-cite-prefix">My question is not answered at all,
sorry Joao!<br>
I did not ask a teacher for his opinion on Stackless, but the
community about the<br>
validity of pep 404.<br>
<br>
I don't want a python 2.7 that does not install correctly, because
people<br>
don't read instructions. And exactly that will happen if I submit
a modified<br>
python 2.7 to PyPI.<br>
<br>
This is a topic on Stackless Python, and I am asking python-dev
before I do it.<br>
But people know this has its limits.<br>
<br>
cheers - chris<br>

<div style="">I usually lecture on Python to present the

friends,<br>
<br>
according to pep 404, there will never be an official Python
2.8.<br>
The migration path is from 2.7 to 3.x.<br>
<br>
I agree with this strategy in almost all consequences but
this one:<br>
<br>
Many customers are forced to stick with Python 2.X because
of other<br>
products, but they require a Python 2.X version which can be
compiled<br>
using Visual Studio 2010 or better.<br>
This is considered an improvement and not a bug fix, where I
disagree.<br>
<br>
So I see many Python 2.7 repositories on BB/GH which are
hacked to support<br>
VS 2010, but they are not converted with the same quality in
mind<br>
that fits our standards.<br>
<br>
<br>
My question<br>
-----------<br>
<br>
I have created a very clean Python 2.7.6+ based CPython with
the Stackless<br>
additions, that compiles with VS 2010, using the adapted
project structure<br>
of Python 3.3.X, and I want to publish that on the Stackless
website as the<br>
official "Stackless Python 2.8". If you consider Stackless
as official ;-) .<br>
<br>
This compiler change is currently the only deviation from
CPython 2.7,<br>
but we may support a few easy back-ports on customer demand.
We don'd add<br>
any random stuff, of course.<br>
<br>
My question is if that is safe to do:<br>
Can I rely on PEP 404 that the "Python 2.8" namespace never
will clash<br>
with CPython?<br>
<br>
And if not, what do you suggest then?<br>
It will be submitted by end of November, thanks for your
quick responses!<br>
<br>
all the best -- Chris<br>
