My time machine doesn't work very well in the future. So I can't tell what we'll find necessary 2 years from now. But I would be fine with defining the time limit to be max(time(3.1) + 2 years, time(3.2)). I.e. the moratorium (unless explicitly extended) ends as soon as 3.2 has been released *and* at least 2 years have passed since 3.1. > If possible, I'd also like to hear some of Steven's other points addressed. They haven't changed my mind. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido)
