I will not refrain users to write applications that
are simply not (or no more) working. Two recent examples
from this list: eric5 and leo.

Regression: If the same py33+ just becomes 50 times
slower that its equivalent py32 app. It just becomes
50 times slower.

Now, if some devs are prounded to annouce a gain
5-20% on some method (see bug tracker, ...) on
something that is wrong by design (compared with
my comment above), I wonder if there is not a problem
somewhere.

I'm working like Rick. I always uses Python source and
not installers if possible.
An interesting example:
I downloaded win_unicode_console, v. 012, I modified it
a little bit to make it portable. It worked very well.
The creator of thes app did what I always wanted to
do, but I never understood how to do it.

In version 03, there is a supposed optimization.
Unfortunately no wore working, a wrong understanding
of the interaction unicode/keyboard/python handling...
