Thanks. Then python-dev is definitely the wrong forum. :-)

Definitely wrong forum for RestrictedPython-specifc questions, but not if you consider those two paragraphs from Shane's email, which clarify that Ranjith is seeking for information on possible AST changes that might have occurred in Python 2.5:

""" The safety of RestrictedPython has been validated in a somewhat formal process with Python 2.4. Ranjith is working to validate it with Python 2.5. He is first working to discover all changes between Python 2.4 and 2.5 that might have affected the safety of a RestrictedPython sandbox. Any changes to the AST, builtin functions, methods of builtin types, etc., need to be evaluated for safety.

So, in general, he is looking for detailed lists of changes between Python 2.4 and 2.5--more than the "What's New" doc. """
