#- Is it intended to remain 2.3-compatible for the forseeable #- future? It's not #- mentioned in PEP 291, nor is there any discussion of #- portability to 2.3 in #- PEP 327. I don't have plans to do some effort to keep it "2.3-runnable" when Py2.4 hits the street. Don't know if Raymond or somebody will preocupate about this.
Yes, I've been keeping it Py2.3 compatible and periodically test it on 2.3 just to make sure.
Am hesitant to introduce this as a specific, on-going restriction to the code, but I don't want to throw-away 2.3 compatibility unless there is a darned good offsetting gain.
