>> IIRC, there is a well specified way how accelerator modules should be used by Python modules. I recall a lengthy discussion on python-dev (or the py3k list?) back in the old pre-3.0 days, maybe there's even a PEP? If there's a convention, I'll happily follow it. It would be great if someone could dig up the relevant details (I'll try to look for them myself). >> I don't see a compelling enough reason to break imports in existing code by removing the cElementTree module, so we should not do that. Agreed. Perhaps it should just be deprecated?
