Hi python dev. I have two languishing defects regarding 2.7 and how buffer support isn't complete there. http://bugs.python.org/issue10211 http://bugs.python.org/issue10212
In both cases, the new style buffer support is incomplete, and the patches close usability holes having to do with memoryview objects. It was suggested to me that I put it to python-dev to decide if we should consider this a bug to be fixed or not, and hopefully get a consensus before 2.7.4 freeze. I have been running a local patch of 2.7 with those fixes for two years now.
Cheers, Kristján
