[Peter Schneider-Kamp]
Tim once (0.9-winking-ly) mentioned the possibility of voting with the "keyboard by grabbing the Python source and making your own release".
I don't wanna do this on my own (and get zapped from a lightning bolt thrown by the powers that are), but what would be the pros and cons of an inofficial (maybe 1.8?) alpha-in-between-release?
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. So I'd advise a bit more patience. I intend to stay all up night, listening for secrets Guido may spill in his sleep. the-con-is-making-a-confused-release-even-more-confused-ly y'rs - tim
