Guido van Rossum a7de7b62af Establish the "alternative" version. The exception API is called

raise-statement.  Still some loose ends.

Andrew M. Kuchling 9971768eac Bump Python version 2005-04-09 22:57:29 +00:00
Andrew M. Kuchling e769029165 After some discussion at the distutils sprint at PyCon 2005, it seems that
no one really wants to make a new standalone release of Distutils.
Given that, there's no reason for Distutils code to preserve backward
compatibility, so I am removing the requirement for 2.1 compatibility.

(Jython doesn't use Distutils.  Samuele Pedroni observes that if
Jython does use it someday, that version of Jython will likely support
2.2/2.3 features.  So Jython isn't a reason to keep 2.1
compatibility.)

it is ignored.
2005-03-15 04:06:02 +00:00
Brett Cannon 72fcd5f394 Add references to Guido's "The fate of reduce() in Python 3000" blog entry for
