I'd say kill -X, but keep allowing string exceptions if
it doesn't cost too much. I think of C++, like Gordon said.

Also I'd take the chance and move the exceptions Python
module back into the core, as a frozen mdule or whatever.

Reason: At the moment, the CVS version of the Python library
is incompatible to 1.5.2, which makes testing against the
standard dist quite inconvenient. A compiled CVS Python
does not run under PythonWin when I put it into my standard
installation. Or is there an easy way to switch all settings
to a completely different path?

Anyway, I'm most probably off until Y2K.

See ya all then, provided we survive - chris
