Nice April Fool. :-)
Actually, it wasn't meant to be -- it was a serious suggestion (it's not 1 April any more where I am).
I suppose I'll have to post it again tomorrow before you'll believe that, though...
Well, no matter what, I think it's a bad name. Let's stick with 'yield from'. I'm also returning to the view that return from a generator used as a task (in Dave Beazley's terms) should be spelled differently than a plain return. Phillip Eby's 'return from yield with' may be a little long, but how about 'return from'? -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
