yeh, i suggested something like this some time ago. Perhaps we should make a bit more noise. Agreed, I have a fair bit of legacy code using sequence-*, but if the CHANGES mentioned this would break, that would be fair. In fact, wouldn't sequence_* be faster than _['sequence-*'] anway? A deprecation over the next few versions could be fairly easily handled. (Assuming, of course, people actually READ the changes file :)

Gotta agree with this :-)
Here's the patch. I'll submit it to the collector too. Enjoy. http://www.zope.org/Members/jfarr/Patches/dtml-in-sv --jfarr "Perl is worse than Python because people wanted it worse." Larry Wall, 14 Oct 1998
