It looks like simplejson 2.1.0 and 2.1.1 have been released: http://bob.pythonmac.org/archives/2010/03/10/simplejson-210/ http://bob.pythonmac.org/archives/2010/03/31/simplejson-211/ It looks like any changes that didn't come from the Python tree didn't go into the Python tree, either. I guess we can't put these changes into 2.7 anymore? How can we make this better next time? Cheers, Dirkjan

Seriously! I concur with this. Fortunately, it's not a real problem in this case. There's the (maintained) simplejson package, and the unmaintained json package. And simplejson works with older versions of Python, too, :-) -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at gmail.com> "A storm broke loose in my mind." --Albert Einstein

Has anyone asked Bob why he did this? There might be a logical reason. -Brett

I've just been busy. It's not trivial to move patches from one to the other, so it's not something that has been easy for me to get around to actually doing. It seems that more often than not when I have had time to look at something, it didn't line up well with python's release schedule. (and speaking of busy I'm en route for a week long honeymoon so don't expect much else from me on this thread) -bob
