I've re-merged the py3k trunk to my PEP 3149 branch and uploaded a new diff. For reference, here's the PEP: http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3149/ and the tracker issue: http://bugs.python.org/issue9193 along with the updated patch: http://bugs.python.org/file18558/pep3149.txt and the Launchpad branch: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~barry/python/sovers I'd like to know if anybody has additional feedback, suggestions, or objections that you think still need to be addressed. You can follow up here or in the tracker. Now that 2.6.6 is almost off my plate, I'd like to bring this PEP to its (hopefully successful) conclusion. Cheers, -Barry
