Re: [Python-Dev] Dropping __init__.py requirement for subpackages

So I have a very simple proposal: keep the __init__.py requirement for top-level pacakages, but drop it for subpackages. This should be a small change. I'm hesitant to propose *anything* new for Python 2.5, so I'm proposing it for 2.6; if Neal and Anthony think this would be okay to add to 2.5, they can do so.

Not that it would count in any way, but I'd prefer to keep it. How would I mark a subdirectory as "not-a-package" otherwise? echo "raise ImportError" >__init__.py ? nd -- Das, was ich nicht kenne, spielt stückzahlmäßig *keine* Rolle. -- Helmut Schellong in dclc
