- wiz21c 3y agoPython3 changes were many "little" things; some more fundamental than other (unicode str). So I guess they were able to split the work in tiny pieces and, ultimately, were able to manage the project...
- pphysch 3y agoYes, that was a rough migration process, but the long-term result is we have an improved language and growing community instead of Python going the way of PHP and Perl. Between the 3 P's, Python's strategic decisions in 2000s were clearly the most successful. And it wasn't a total rewrite.
