As a former author / maintainer of the edu-sig web page and frequent visitor thereto, I have

(a) welcomed the new beta website and

(b) sent some feedback to the effect that:

(i) opening first link / mention of this edu-sig maillist gets "permission denied"

(ii) opening last link / mention of this edu-sig maillist gets full listing of all SIGs

Thanks for doing that Kirby.

I have high hopes both glitches will be fixed in short order and wanted to document my actions here so we don't all send the same feedback. On the other hand, maybe that'd help improve the infrastructure?

Let us wait and see.

Good job on that new Python.org website eh?

Very nice job, I agree. As I voluntary withdrew as a maintainer of the edu-sig web page (and indeed from almost all other Python related activities), I feel hesitant to complain. But, I am surprised that: 1. in spite of having seen people volunteering for maintaining the edu-sig web page when I left, I never saw anyone "approved by the proper authorities" to do so. 2. the Education link at the top does not bring any information about the existence of edu-sig (both the web page and this list). 3. at the bottom of http://www.python.org/community/sigs/current/edu-sig/, it is suggested that changes to that page should be sent to this list. But, I am not aware of how this can bring about changes as I don't know anyone on this list having the proper "rights" to bring about changes. Still, a very nice change to the website. Hopefully, it will soon all get sorted out. André
