This is only included with python2.5. We _could_ do something like what we do now with other things, i.e., wrap it and fall back on something else if uuid module cannot be imported. Or we can tell people to install an extra uuid module if they are using older versions of python. The question is: do we get any benefits from real uniqueness? (Before we get back into the question of whether anyone still uses old versions of Python: Django can run on 2.3 and as long as they can, I think so should we.) - yuri -- http://sputnik.freewisdom.org/ |
