I would be less sympathetic with them if there was recent warning, eg, the schedule for changing it in the next release was part of the current release. But if you tell somebody you're going to change something, and then don't for a few years, you probably need to renew the warning before you make the change. Don't you think so? Why not?
I agree. Note that Guido posted a note to c.l.py on Monday. I believe that meets your notification criteria. Cheers, -g -- Greg Stein, http://www.lyra.org/
