I don't see any pros at this time, although I'm typing on my laptop while sitting on the sidewalk in the dark in front of a Howard Johnson's with my hair dripping wet, so Guido can sleep in peace in the room we're sharing, and this after a hellish 12-hour trip to get to the God-forsaken State of California, so I'm not seeing many pros of any kind at the moment <wink>.

The Python Consortium meeting is this Friday, and the license hassles are on the agenda. While not privy to all the details myself, I can't imagine that any side in this debate can afford to *allow* the impasse to continue longer than that.
Okay, that sounds better than nothing. Meanwhile the question "what happened to 1.6?" starts popping up in c.l.py more often.
So I'd advise a bit more patience. I intend to stay all up night, listening for secrets Guido may spill in his sleep.
Be sure to write a secret transcript of *everything*. We might use it the next time we want to add some special syntax to Python<wink> being-more-patient-ly y'rs Peter -- Peter Schneider-Kamp ++47-7388-7331 Herman Krags veg 51-11 mailto:peter@schneider-kamp.de N-7050 Trondheim http://schneider-kamp.de
