A switch to ENABLE those warnings?

I think a few people I know would still be raising strings like exceptions if not for the deprecation warnings. Most people won't turn on the switch with the extra warnings. --yuv Yep and their code will break in the future as a result. Thats their problem (or whoever employed them and neglected to do code reviews and beat them with a stick for using a Python 1.x "feature" in 2009). SUGGESTION: Our Whats New document currently has a single "new, improved and deprecated" section in it. We should make Deprecations its own section so that they're easy to find all in one concise place when upgrading code between releases.

Good point, I'll make that change if AMK agrees.

-- Thus spake the Lord: Thou shalt indent with four spaces. No more, no less. Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out.
