a) haven't seen a patch for it, so no clue about how complex it is code |
22 |
wise and b) I generally dislike any markup/parsing in the temporary |
23 |
files. I'd rather get it out as-is now and incorporate any feedback |
24 |
later. As you said this "interface" doesn't have to be compatible, also |
25 |
I intended to add a general "might change"-note for elog in the release |
26 |
notes. |

Well, the vote was more for the SHA1 change actually as that's the one |
35 |
triggering the size increase. The pycrypto stuff itself doesn't do |
36 |
anything really, it would just make the size increase more apparent. |

Well, Spanky liked the suggestion ;) |

How would it break? |

Don't think so given that offhand I don't even know what getlist() does ... |

Oh, btw, two things that are in trunk but weren't listed in your |
62 |
original mail: |
63 |
- the rewritten versioning code (including the cvs and mult-suffix |
64 |
enhancements) |
65 |
- finally killing of the stupid "masked by -*" message |
