Walter sez:

iterkeys(), itervalues() and iteritems() are missing from dict-proxy objects. Was this done on purpose or was it an oversight?

Should these missing methods be added (and the "XXX" docstrings be fixed along the way)?

I think they should be added; I can't think of any reason not to add them. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org> PythonLabs at Zope Corporation

If you can prepare a patch, that'd be great!

I already checked in the change. I hope this is OK! Bye, Walter Dörwald -- Walter Dörwald · LivingLogic AG, Bayreuth/Germany · www.livinglogic.de

I noticed that there were no changes to the test suite. Could you add that?

Also, I notice that Walter very recently got commit provileges. I though that part of the deal with new committers was to make SF patches first and check them in only after someone more experienced has reviewed the patch. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
