Both Python 2 and 3 will be used. > Let me modify me question: Has any other distribution moved to using python-3 by default? Because that is what will happen when you stabilize python-3.1. You will move to it by default. Everyone who installs Gentoo will get python-3.1. Everyone who has 2.6 will get 3.1 -- unless they take action to prevent that. That is the _definition_ of default. For the normal user, no amount of documentation. I repeated BLOODY *NO* amount of documentation will change the fact that the default is "broken system" for a stable install. Whoever suggested that python-3.1 should go stable immediately needs his head examined. Nirbheek, Extremely Pissed Off At This Idiocy. -- ~Nirbheek Chauhan GNOME+Mozilla Team, Gentoo
