People: I don't decide myself what to do in this case. The Decimal module appeared in 2.4, and received just slight modifications for 2.5. Since it appeared, a "just download and use it" version was available for Python 2.3 users. But for 2.6, it was fully renewed. Not only was updated to the last spec from Cawlishaw, but also a lot of (very slightly, arithmetic corner cases) bugs were fixed. Also, it received a lot of code simplifications and speedups. All this is, in most part, because Mark Dickinson was involved here, and he did (and is doing) a great work. When 2.6 is out, I'll update that downloadable for Py2.3. But what to do with Py2.5? Decimal is a pretty stand alone module, and I'm absolutely sure that just backporting the whole module and its testcases will fix a lot of problems, and Py2.5 users will have new functionality, but is this ok? (of course, I can not be 100% sure that any bugs were introduced in these modifications). Recommendations? Thank you very much! -- .
