Description
This is something I brought up a couple weeks ago, and finally got around to implementation and feasibility testing. Comes from some inter-related thoughts:
dill
bytecode step, suggesting we're introducing unnecessary room for Python version mismatch errors.These new serialization strategies simply extract the source and send that directly. (They also append that string with the name of the function for ease of deserialization.)
Food for thought: if this covers all situations that the existing code strategies do while avoiding more Python version mismatch errors, do we deprecate the old ones?
I'd like to see this out in the wild first before making that decision, of course.
