[Python-ideas] Re: Add support for private variables, methods and functions in Python

Ethan:

As you may have noticed, this is a mailing list -- no thread is closed. I've seen posts to three-year-old threads.

Since the discussion has come to a halt and it's decided that we'll continue to use the Pythonic way for private and it's also very hard to implement what I suggested, I think no more discussion should be there regarding this. But if someone is interested then they are always welcome to comment.
