+First they make plan for having more than one version of python, something
+that I always told I will not do since no one stepped to do much to help
+on the transition. In short, as long the python team will in practice be only me
+( and in practice, I mean &quot;people who effectivly commit&quot; ), we will have only 1 supported
+version of the stack.
+( I consider python 3 to be a different language, because of the
+source level incompatibility ).
+
+There is also the issue on bytecompilation ( <A HREF="https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=50484">https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=50484</A> ).
+I have exposed there the various problem, and apart from explaining
+that the solution I chosed was not better than the other, no one gave a compeling
+argument into one or the others alternatives.
+
+Finally, a vast part of the policy is handling 2to3, a topic that we didn't discuss
+at all, and I would not be confortable to adopt it without first looking at it and
+discussing it.
+
+Not to mention that our policy draft speak of thing they do not include
+( like naming policy, for a start ).
