[closed] Re: bug in cwm on Mac os X?

Libby,

I am having a go at the n3 to-do list
http://www.w3.org/200/10/swap/admin/N3-Bugs.ics
which won't remove things until there is a [closed] message in the 
thread.
(DanC's nifty new stuff).

This was as you may recall fixed with a version test in
http://www.w3.org/200/10/swap/term.py

import sys
if sys.hexversion < 0x02020000:
     raise RuntimeError("Sorry, this software requires python2.2 or 
newer.")

There is no regression test for it ... not sure that I want to keep an 
old python around.

Cheers

Tim
