> The idea is to add a general-purpose context manager to manage (python
> or non-python) resources that don't come with their own context manager.

I read the thread back on python-ideas and didn’t like the idea, without knowing exactly why—maybe a feeling that it’s too generic and less clean than adding context management support to the classes directly.  My opinion is only that of a user, I’m less qualified than Nick or Raymond for this module.

In the passage I quoted, I don’t understand what is meant by “non-Python resources”.
