While I agree that Rational was terrible to deal with, Purify is the only option available to some users, and it seems like a bad idea to remove something from the distribution while it provides benefit to some people, while not affecting those who don't wish to use it. Deprecation isn't the same as removal. What puremodule is really lacking at the moment is a champion; have you actually used it recently?

Ah, the moment of truth.. :-) Well, uh, no. I didn't know puremodule existed, so I didn't give it a try. It seems like something that would be of use, though, so I'd hate to see it go away. A cursory look at the code indicates that it may need some updating (have to try...the API may not have actually changed significantly). I'm actually more interested in it from the Quantify side of things from the standpoint of being able to provide the user a single look at their application profiling data from both a C and Python perspective.
