Hi,
In the discussion of a feature request for MacPython[1], the OP (hhas) said:
As of Python 2.6/3.0, all Mac-specific modules are deprecated/eliminated
from the standard library and there are no longer any plans to submit
appscript for possible inclusion. This issue should be rejected and
closed.If that is the current state of Mac modules, there are no less than 17 issues* that should be closed, 4 bug reports** that might be kept open and 4 mixed-cases*** that might be obsolete/irrelevant.
Besides amounting to 1% of open issues, these can divert efforts to bogus issues: I've submitted a patch for one of the mixed-cases (bug + feature request), but now don't think it was worth it.
So, if someone could reassure / clarify the rules for closing these in general and/or take a quick look at specific issues, that would be a great help.
Issue lists below.
Regards, Daniel
