As there is already Python 3.2 alpha, the core of Python has already been ported

How about the email package? What about email? It is a core library, right? It has been ported AFAIK. Or have I missed something? Are you just assuming that because there have been 3.x releases, everything in the standard library works properly in 3.x? Or do you know something about the email package specifically?

Yes, I assumed that because the core team planned a beta release of 3.2 for October. "3.2" sounds more stable and complete than "3.0".

Last I checked, there were a number of outstanding issues with email in 3.x. And as Michael Foord pointed out, there are other standard library modules in the same state.

I see. Thank you for the clarification. I am sorry for being so haste.

Oleg.

       Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.
