[Python-Dev] PEP 278 - finished?

[Guido van Rossum]

There were a few comments on Jack's PEP, but by and large they were
positive.  I've given Jack approval to check his code in (of course
it'll have to pass the unit tests).  I expect that there will be some
work on it between his checkin and the 2.3 release:

- maybe it's unnecessary to have a configure option for this

- maybe it's better to have a separate constructor instead of a mode
  argument

But those changes are easily made once the code is checked in.

So, take it away, Jack!
