Re: [Python-Dev] Why Foo is better than Baz

Should I make a point of looking at what using the Spencer engine would entail? It might not be too difficult (an evening or two, maybe?) to write a re.py that sat on top of the Spencer code; that would at least let us do some benchmarking.

Surely this would be more helpful than weeks of specilative emails -- go for it! --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
