Embedding the Google Python Release Schedule calendar
by Barry Warsaw July 1, 2010

July 1, 2010

I've updated the Google Python Release Schedule calendar. I think it would be nice to embed it either on the front page or on the /dev page. It's an iframe, which probably means something to someone on this list <wink>. Here's what Google tells me to use to embed the calendar: <iframe src="http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=b6v58qvojllt0i6ql654r1vh00%40group…" style="border: 0" width="800" height="600" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe> Thanks! -Barry

Job Board RSS Feed

Greetings. Would there be any objections to replacing the current URL for the Job Board RSS feed with one from Feedburner? The content would remain the same but we would have access to stats such as clicks and location. Cheers // martin

blog post about the infrastructure team
by Doug Hellmann June 26, 2010

June 26, 2010

Hi, Webmasters, I'm working on a post about the Infrastructure Committee for the PSF blog. As part of the post, I'm talking a little about the services managed by the committee and the related volunteer groups, such as this one. I'd like to mention each of you by name, but don't know who you are or where to find a list. :-) If you'd like to be included in the post, please drop me a note and I'll make sure to recognize your service. If someone has the time to write 2-3 sentences describing the services you manage in more detail than "the website for the PSF," I'd be happy to include that elaboration, too. Thanks, Doug -- Doug Hellmann Communications Director Python Software Foundation http://python.org/psf/

Hello Jay, That domain is owned by Ryan Phillips and not by the PSF. According to a whois lookup he renewed it on the 19th June and it next expires in June 2011. Hopefully the redirect will be back in place soon. All the best, Michael Foord On 21/06/2010 16:14, Jay Parlar wrote: > It seems that registration of planetpython.org has expired.
