Jeremy Hylton 4be092d93e Clarify rules for names defined in class scope. (Classes hide names
was a bad label.)

Add note about how to implement flat closures using an extra level of
indirection.

Andrew M. Kuchling 64f8e76a08 Add a first cut at a proposed new interface (still incomplete) 2000-12-12 17:34:39 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 633ca5bb61 Some stupid mechanical changes, such as remove trailing whitespace,
double spaces between sentences.  Also fix a few typos, add an XXX
note, and change the URL for the implementation to be the patch
detail page instead of the download page.

I hope Neil doesn't mind.

Thomas Wouters a2abf8d660 Update Moshe's email address to the one that won't stop working soon, and also test CVS write access on this new installation. 2000-12-11 23:08:11 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0b7cc69207 Add responses to Barry's and Fred's concerns. Message matching is now
case insensitive.
2000-12-11 16:50:11 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 600a71428c New version of the PEP. Changes based upon the second
(delayed-import) implentation.  Address some of Paul's concerns.
2000-12-11 16:34:34 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ef23f1f0cf Add a missing colon to the first header line, to fix the HTML
formatting.
2000-12-08 16:02:28 +00:00
Guido van Rossum eea626cb8d Rejection notice (with Barry's agreement). 2000-12-08 15:36:03 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a9af2cc689 __findattr__ is rejected -- the idea is too uncooked and you actually
*can* do most of this with __getattr__.
2000-12-08 15:05:09 +00:00
Guido van Rossum aaef244947 Revised version, completing a bunch of things that weren't resolved
before.  The implementation was removed from the PEP, it's now in the
SF patch manager; I'm pretty happy with it! :-)
2000-12-07 21:52:14 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5d702e543f First stab at the Warnings PEP. I'm still working on the
implementation...

Guido van Rossum 9056227bb3 Fix authorship for the last time\! 2000-12-06 21:22:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 2d42675b10 This is now ready for discussion. David, please read -- did I forget
anything?

Neil Schemenauer 3a679ad2aa - give credit where due
- add copyright section
2000-12-05 15:05:14 +00:00
Neil Schemenauer df24baa509 Update some names in the numerical index to be consistent with the PEPs
themselves.
2000-12-05 03:31:13 +00:00
Neil Schemenauer 4a8a1e44f9 Add some meat to the PEP (mostly from Marc-Andre's web page). 2000-12-05 03:17:08 +00:00
Neil Schemenauer 970ec1775b Make Neil Schemenauer the owner of 208. 2000-12-05 03:16:33 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ce5b583ec5 Checking in some text. Most of this is simply an Appendix repeating
what David Ascher said in 1998 (before the starship bites the dust
again).
2000-12-04 20:32:13 +00:00
Barry Warsaw 9599e69426 Back out last second change in the examples. `missing' should be an
empty mutable (i.e. list) since empty tuples are shared.  Thanks Just!
2000-12-02 15:12:35 +00:00
Barry Warsaw e9ae8a5694 Talk about PEP 213, which is related and can be (mostly) implemented
using the __findattr__() hook.

Fred Drake 3f44f838ce Added request that building from a source release should not attempt to
overwrite the distributed */graminit.* files.
2000-11-29 15:35:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d57b28ee36 Add PEP 230, Warning Framework.
Changed Owner: to Author: in a number of PEPs.
2000-11-28 22:23:25 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 087ce4a2df Demoted 216 (docstring format) and 229 (using distutils to build) to
pie-in-the-sky.  Reasons: 216 is NOT the consensus of the doc-sig; 229
is not sufficiently worked out and doesn't seem a priority.  (This can
still make it into 2.1 if the author does the work.)

Added GvR as co-author for 207 (rich comparisons).
2000-11-28 22:13:45 +00:00
Guido van Rossum cde16673c5 Update status; fix Zadka's co-ownership of 207/208. 2000-11-28 14:01:17 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 5f1f83ce6e Slight grammar and spelling nits; updated mx.Proxy URL; added
reference to EST's pyweak.

Fred Drake 7626095211 Updated information on Dianne Hackborn's old vref proposal. A copy of
her original proposal has been included as an appendix, since it is hard
to get since DejaNews lost their old archives.
2000-11-17 22:54:45 +00:00
Tim Peters 655cf91b3a Added SF Feature Request 121963: threads and IDLE don't mix. 2000-11-14 20:27:54 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 204cf5b783 Addtwo more wishes: kill thread, Python/python name conflict. 2000-11-13 20:21:08 +00:00

Moshe Zadka 0e0af6190c Adding more questions which sprang up in the doc-sig. 2000-11-10 00:06:39 +00:00
Fred Drake ac5bd5dbce Slight update regarding Dianne Hackborn's vref() proposal from 1995;
there was never an implementation.
2000-11-08 06:47:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 4f5b9a4c5b Moved the "Weak References" PEP from empty to incomplete, even though
there is more than an abstract (not enough of the required parts are
in place still).
2000-11-08 06:23:35 +00:00
Fred Drake 8b7310c518 Added some text describing the motivations for weak references, what is
available in Java, and pointers to previous work in Python.

There is a lot to be done before there can be a sample implementation;
issues related to implementation need to be discussed.
2000-11-08 06:20:40 +00:00
Moshe Zadka 94b08d33bb Added structured text consensus. 2000-11-07 09:11:04 +00:00
