Forwarded from webmaster alias. I have no opinion one way or the other about providing a link. It would be nice if their Python listings emphasized Python as a primary skill, not just a secondary or "nice to have" skill. Skip

The old intros page - missing but widely linked to
by Michael Foord Oct. 11, 2010

Oct. 11, 2010

Hello all, Someone has emailed the webmaster alias about the "page not found" error for this link: http://www.python.org/doc/Intros.html It is obviously an outdated link to a long-gone-page, but a quick google search shows that this page is actually still quite widely linked to. I can't see an obvious alternative page to redirect to, but if anyone can think of one it would be good to redirect users to somewhere helpful. All the best, Michael Foord -- http://www.voidspace.org.uk/ READ CAREFULLY.
