</I>&gt;&gt;<i> I though that I can find more time to work on this week end, but

</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> The Mandriva doc is really not a good starter
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> (<A HREF="http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Python_packaging_policy">http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Python_packaging_policy</A>)
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> That's just a draft, but as the one that wrote the draft, could I
</I>&gt;<i> know what is wrong with what was written so far ?
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>nothing except it is just a draft ;)

&gt;&gt;<i> so I propose to use the Fedora one
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> (<A HREF="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Python">http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Python</A>) with some cleaning.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Can we provide &#160;same macros as in In Fedora 13 and greater ?
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Do you see any major problem with the Fedora policy ?
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> First they make plan for having more than one version of python, something
</I>&gt;<i> that I always told I will not do since no one stepped to do much to help
</I>&gt;<i> on the transition. In short, as long the python team will in practice be only me
</I>&gt;<i> ( and in practice, I mean &quot;people who effectivly commit&quot; ), we will have only 1 supported
</I>&gt;<i> version of the stack.
</I>&gt;<i> ( I consider python 3 to be a different language, because of the
</I>&gt;<i> source level incompatibility ).
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> 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>&gt;<i> I have exposed there the various problem, and apart from explaining
</I>&gt;<i> that the solution I chosed was not better than the other, no one gave a compeling
</I>&gt;<i> argument into one or the others alternatives.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Finally, a vast part of the policy is handling 2to3, a topic that we didn't discuss
</I>&gt;<i> at all, and I would not be confortable to adopt it without first looking at it and
</I>&gt;<i> discussing it.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Not to mention that our policy draft speak of thing they do not include
</I>&gt;<i> ( like naming policy, for a start ).
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>No problem, I understand perfectly
so let start with the Mandriva draft
