Hi, Personally I also don't mind the dependency. Though I know in the past we've had a policy of keeping dependencies to a minimum as well as licenses. Attrs uses MIT as well so that should not be a problem. One thing which does stand out is that attrs is at v16, suggesting they break their API a lot. Since you work with it already I guess you have an idea on whether they've stabilised by now or the changes are not so bad? As an aside, if we're happy to introduce more libraries then maybe we should also consider the standard six package instead of doing our own stuff, mostly because I'd make it easier for new contributors.

Hi, attrs is version 16 since it uses CalVer, not SemVer.

[proposal] introducing attrs to the codebase
by Ronny Pfannschmidt Dec. 6, 2016

Dec. 6, 2016

Hi all, i'd like to introduce https://pypi.python.org/pypi/attrs as a dependency, its a fairly usefull library that takes away quite some boilerplate and common error cause while automatically adding repr, comparators and similar small details to python classes. I have used it in a number of personal projects, and dont want to miss it by now. -- Ronny
