I<br>> disagree. The document is imperfect, but for me it served a certain<br>> purpose. Therefore I stand with the camp that says improving the<br>> document is the way to go.<br><br>+1. I've been reading the postings on this discussion intently, as I have had experience with the socket HOWTO when I was first learning about sockets. I agree with the view that <span id="rmic1" class="c_ic_i"><span class="link c_icinmenu2"><span dir="ltr" id="InlineMenuTemplateicTmInlineMenuTemplate1_name" target="_top" href="http://sn131w.snt131.mail.live.com/mail/InboxLight.aspx?FolderID=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001&fav=True&n=347736579#" title="martin@v.loewis.de"><span dir="ltr">Martin v. Löwis expressed, that as a beginner I didn't read too much into the text </span></span></span></span>at first because I was more concerned with trying out the examples and getting used to writing the code and such. I would also say that, I wasn't too bothered if the guide never went into too much detail about all the terms it was mentioning, it isn't after all a definitive guide on sockets, but the terms can always be googled later if one so wished.<br><br>I wholeheartedly disagree with removing it, that would be a real shame and I dislike the idea of moving it to the wiki (I cannot even remember ever visiting the wiki). I may not be a Python Guru but I think my "n00bishness" helps in this particular discussion and I would say I would have to agree to an improvement over the suggested alternatives.<br><br>Craig<br><br> </body>
