Fixed point support

[Carlos Ribeiro]

Hello all,

I was reading the latest python-dev summary as posted here, and it seems that 
the debate about FixedPoint has surfaced again. I remember it being discussed 
some time ago during my first period of activity here (circa 2001).

My question is, isn't proper to discuss fixed point support here, at c.l.p, 
with a bigger audience? Or is this discussion going to be fruitless (for lack 
of interest) or endless (because it is so contractory)? I have a few words on 
this subject to share, but first I would like to know where is the proper 
place...

[I hope I'm not opening another can of worms. After PEP308 and case 
sensitivity, I feel a little bit tired...]
