The SQLite naming scheme shouldn't be that baffling, since it's pretty much PEP 394 s/python/sqlite/g. Sent from a random iPhone On May 15, 2013, at 18:08, "Stephen J. Turnbull" <stephen@xemacs.org> wrote:

Very minor nitpick, but can we deprecate the name "sqlite3" in favor of "sqlite"?
It's probably not a great idea. Two of the OS distributions I have installed (Debian and MacPorts) have both sqlite2 and sqlite3. Another (Gentoo) doesn't provide sqlite2 at all AFAICS, but is inconsistent about naming: some ebuild names (including the main library itself) call it "sqlite", but equally many refer to "sqlite3".
sqlite3 may be improper, but it seems to be the unambiguous name. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas
