Grid for python.org (Was: Website formatting problem)

Feb. 20, 2012

Hello web team, I wonder if grid based layout would fit python.org? Do anybody have experience with that? -- anatoly t.

Website formatting problem
by Michael Foord Feb. 20, 2012

Feb. 20, 2012

Hello web team, We've had a report from a user to the webmaster email about a problem with python.org: In Chromium 6 on Debian squeeze, the "Release Schedule" box on the left of the page http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3119/ (for example) is too large. It obscures some of the text on the left margin. I can send a screenshot if necessary. There is no problem with Iceweasel (Debian's rebranded Firefox) 3.5. The user says this happens everywhere the "Release Schedule" box is used. Anyone else using Debian Squeeze and able to try Chromium 6 (I assume that's the current version) and maybe diagnose or even fix the problem? All the best, Michael Foord -- http://www.voidspace.org.uk/ May you do good and not evil May you find forgiveness for yourself and forgive others May you share freely, never taking more than you give. -- the sqlite blessing http://www.sqlite.org/different.html

Links to last binary builds to download pages
by Michael Foord Feb. 20, 2012

Feb. 20, 2012

Hey folks, When we do security only releases of Python we regularly get emails to webmaster(a)python.org asking where to find binary builds. If you want to find the most recent binary builds of Python 2.5 & 2.6, it used to involve clicking through quite a few links. I've added links to the latest binary releases to the 2.6.7, 2.5.6 and 2.5.5 security release download pages. These are primarily for the benefit of Windows and Mac OS X users who wouldn't normally compile their own builds from source. It would be helpful if release managers for security, source only, releases could include similar links in future. All the best, Michael -- http://www.voidspace.org.uk/ May you do good and not evil May you find forgiveness for yourself and forgive others May you share freely, never taking more than you give. -- the sqlite blessing http://www.sqlite.org/different.html
