Actually, it goes all over the place. Some things (like doing "-3" warnings for uses of .keys() that assume the result is a list) required wizard level knowledge; other things are fairly simple. For example, abc.py and _abcoll.py were backported successfully by someone who was learning on the job. Backporting pure Python code often isn't that hard. -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
