I find it hard to believe that our mails crossed.  The first time I
asked you to wait until after the release was last night:

| CVS is your friend, Eric. :-)

| Can you put off checking in your changes until after the 2.3a1
| release tomorrow?  I'm a bit nervous about last-minute changes to
| ConfigParser, based on the history of that module.

If you saw that and chose to ignore my advice, I would've appreciated
a reply at least.

I'll leave the decision to revert your checkin to Fred, who knows the
code (and has pending changes to it of his own, which now cause
conflicts).
