    (Suggestion) Download Options

    Hello,
    Can we have a download option for upcoming Python 2.3 without TCL/Tk?
    Though I know the extremely popular Tkinter is the default GUI of
    Python, I see one immediate advantage of a download option without
    TCL/Tk
    1) Download size is less and it is a boon for people like me with slow
    modem connection.
    2) Tkinter with TCL/TK can be a separate add-on

    I look forward to opinions from members.

    Regards,
    Srijit

    Maybe this should be written up as a PEP? See
    http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0001.html for more information.
