Have any other distribution moved to purely using python-3.1? The |
| 11 |
reason is pretty simple: Not everything has been ported to use 3.1 |
| 12 |
yet. Hell, I personally have 3.1 under a local p.mask so I don't have |
| 13 |
to bother with breakage due to it. (existing packages as well as |
| 14 |
scripts/projects I have). |

I do believe it will be very counter-productive to move it to stable |
| 17 |
at this point. |
