I was going to object on principle to Raymond's suggestion to rip out the operator module functions in Python 3.0.1. I have no objection to ripping them out for 3.1. If you really think we need a Python 3.1 soon, then I won't worry about trying to get a 3.0.1 out soon. 3.1 is Benjamin's baby :). If OTOH we do intend to get a 3.0.1 out, say by the end of February, then please be careful to adhere to our guidelines for which version various changes can go in. For example, the operator methods needs to be restored to the 3.0 maintenance branch, and any other API changes added to 3.0 need to be backed out and applied only to the python3 trunk.
