Working lazy imports would be useful to have. Ralf is opposed to the idea
Note that my being opposed is because the benefits are smaller than the cost. If there was a better reason than shaving a couple of extra ms off the import time or being able to more cleanly deprecate modules, then of course it's possible I'd change my mind.
Whether it's compelling or not is up to you, but I'd love to not have to include a bunch of stuff I'm not using in a py2exe or py2app or ... bundle when shipping self-contained executables. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chris.Barker@noaa.gov
