I believe Brett Cannon is working on this. Since I need to control imports to the point of being able to deny importing built-in and extension modules, I was planning on re-implementing the import system to use PEP 302 importers. Possibly do it in pure Python for ease-of-use. Then that can be worked off of for possible Py3K improvements to the import system. But either way I will be messing with the import system in the relatively near future. If you want to help, Paul (or anyone else), just send me an email and we can try to coordinate something (plan to do the work in the sandbox as a separate thing from my security stuff). -Brett -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
