Fixing #7175: a standard location for Python config files
by Éric Araujo 14 Aug '10

14 Aug '10

Hello list Tarek opened a distutils bugs in http://bugs.python.org/issue7175 that evolved into a discussion about the proper location to use for config files. Distutils uses [.]pydistutils.cfg and .pypirc, and now unittest2 has a config file too. It would be nice to define one standard location for config files used by stdlib modules, and maybe also by third-party programs related closely to Python development (testing tools, static code checkers and the like), in a way that doesn’t clutter the user home directory with a dozen dotfiles while still being easily found. (The Unix notions of dotfiles and home directory have to be adapted to use non-dotfiles in some standard place on various Windows. The Mac experts disagree on the right directory to use.) Tarek, Antoine, RDM, MAL were +1 on using ~/.python (whether to use .pythonx.y or .python/x.y is a subissue to discuss after general agreement). What do you think about this? Regards

Python 2.6.6 status
by Barry Warsaw 13 Aug '10

13 Aug '10

Hi folks, I'm liking where we're at for Python 2.6.6. We have no release blocker issues open, and the buildbots look about as green as they get. I've accounted for all the commits since 2.6.6rc1 and I think barring any last minute issues, that we're on schedule for 2.6.6 final for this Monday, August 16. Please, no commits to release26-maint without checking with me first (svnmerge blocks are okay). I plan to tag the release at approximately 2200 UTC Monday so that Martin can build the Windows binaries first thing on Tuesday and I can announce the release Tuesday afternoon EST. I'll be hanging out on #python-dev as much as possible over the weekend in case anything crops up. Thanks to everybody who has helped get 2.6.6 to such an awesome state. -Barry

Proposed tweaks to functools.wraps
by Nick Coghlan 13 Aug '10

13 Aug '10

Based on a pair of tracker issues (#3445 and #9396) I'm considering a couple of adjustments to functools.wraps for 3.2. The first (#3445) is a request from ages ago to make update_wrapper more forgiving when it encounters a missing attribute. Instead of throwing AttributeError (as it does now), it would just skip the missing attribute. This would allow wraps to be used with other callables that don't fully mimic the function API. I was initially opposed to the idea, but over time I've come to think this is a case where practicality beats purity (since that really sums up functools.wraps in general - it is already the case that the copied info isn't quite right for the decorated function, but it's still better than using the wrapper function's own metadata). The second (#9396) came up in the context of the new cache decorators added to functools, and allowing applications to choose their own caching strategies. I suggested exposing the original (uncached) function, and Raymond suggested that the easiest way to enable that would be for functools.update_wrapper to add a new attribute that provides a reference to the original function. Some time back, we considered doing this automatically as an integral part of decoration, but decided that wasn't appropriate. However, building it into the explicit wrapping functions makes sense to me. To avoid namespace conflicts, I plan to use "__wraps__" as the name for the reference to the original function. Thoughts? Concerns? Better ideas? Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan(a)gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia

[RELEASED] Python 3.2 alpha 1
by Georg Brandl 13 Aug '10

13 Aug '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On behalf of the Python development team, I'm happy to announce the first alpha preview release of Python 3.2. Python 3.2 is a continuation of the efforts to improve and stabilize the Python 3.x line. Since the final release of Python 2.7, the 2.x line will only receive bugfixes, and new features are developed for 3.x only. Since PEP 3003, the Moratorium on Language Changes, is in effect, there are no changes in Python's syntax and built-in types in Python 3.2. Development efforts concentrated on the standard library and support for porting code to Python 3. Highlights are: * numerous improvements to the unittest module * PEP 3147, support for .pyc repository directories * an overhauled GIL implementation that reduces contention * many consistency and behavior fixes for numeric operations * countless fixes regarding string/unicode issues; among them full support for a bytes environment (filenames, environment variables) * a sysconfig module to access configuration information * a pure-Python implementation of the datetime module * additions to the shutil module, among them archive file support * improvements to pdb, the Python debugger For an extensive list of changes in 3.2, see Misc/NEWS in the Python distribution. To download Python 3.2 visit: http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.2/ 3.2 documentation can be found at: http://docs.python.org/3.2/ Please consider trying Python 3.2 with your code and reporting any bugs you may notice to: http://bugs.python.org/ Enjoy! - -- Georg Brandl, Release Manager georg at python.org (on behalf of the entire python-dev team and 3.2's contributors) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.16 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkxVQJsACgkQN9GcIYhpnLBxIgCcCiVu/QUkFf0bYM2Vmi8St3mZ 2N4An04q36lr47OA+bslqG/4Zj7ZwVOX =iL8N -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Remove "unit test needed"
by Antoine Pitrou 12 Aug '10

12 Aug '10

Hello, I would like to see “unit test needed” removed from the workflow menu in the bug tracker. The reason is that we don't do test-driven development (or, at least, most of us don't) and this stage entry is therefore useless and confusing. Saying to someone that an unit test is needed happens during the patch review - it isn't a separate stage in itself. The reason I'm asking is that I've seen some triagers bumping a lot of issues to “unit test needed” lately, and I find this annoying. What we need is patches, not unit tests per se. Regards Antoine.
