Treating it as a new language is the intent, and I'll make every effort to keep them separated. In theory there wouldn't be any problems. However if I screw up and somehow cross the streams, I run the risk of breaking _lots_ of things; yum is the most obvious victim in the critical path. Obviously I don't want to do that. I'm not volunteering to put it into F12. I think that anyone wanting to push it into F12 needs to sign up for a lot of testing (brainstorming some testcases: can you still compile and build external modules with both 2 and 3 -devel subpackages installed? does every configure script pick up the correct version? etc) Dave -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
