[Python-Dev] Removing PendingDeprecationWarning

[Victor Stinner]

Hi,

I agree to make PendingDeprecationWarning an alias to
DeprecationWarning. I never liked "PendingDeprecationWarning" name,
it's way too long to type :-D

I'm fine with that.

I'm not sure that I understand well. Do you want to remove the
PendingDeprecationWarning builtin symbol, or just make it an alias to
DeprecationWarning.

I'm fine with "PendingDeprecationWarning = DeprecationWarning".

IMHO your email title is misleading. You don't want to *remove*
PendingDeprecationWarning, you only want to make it an alias to
DeprecationWarning, right? In term of backward compatibility, it's
very different :-)
