Ideas for backwards incompatible changes in 3.x

It would be good if most of these can have warnings in 2.6

Java

  • In our core code kill methods that do not take a ThreadState when there is a method that does (mainly in PyObject)

Registry

  • Kill respectJavaAccessibility

  • Remove event properties – they are arbitrary, hazardous and easy to go wrong with
