Editing IntroductoryBooks page
by daniël bosold June 3, 2020

June 3, 2020

I was just reading the wiki looking for some recommended introductory books on the IntroductoryBooks page and noticed that most of the entries there are Video courses. While, interesting, it's not what this page is about. Hoping to edit this page (and move the courses to a VideoCourses page - or some such) I found that it's locked down, likely due to inconsiderate users or spammers. I'd like to be able to fix this page as well as add a separate one for courses. Can I do that? thank you, RagnarVanDerWiel

Conversion to emeritus status
by Steve Holden May 29, 2020

May 29, 2020

Hi Ewa, Betsy, webmasters and pydotorgers, With my 70th birthday coming up, even though I continue to work happily it's definitely time to wind some activities down. As you know I've been planning to do this for some time, so I'm sure this request to convert to emeritus status will come as no surprise. The only regular duty I have been performing for the Foundation of late is that of webmaster, and with this email I am also withdrawing from that duty. I will remain as a list administrator until someone else steps up, a I believe I am the only currently active admin for the list. I became a member of the Foundation on Guido's nomination at the General Meeting immediately after the first PyCon in 2003. In an interview shortly before that Guido had told me that he felt the PSF needed "adult supervision." Looking at what the Foundation has become I am sure he no longer feels the same insecurity. My best wishes to all those who remain and continue to enrich the Python community in so many diverse ways. It's now time for me to build the man-cave I've been planning and get on with some hobby interests. Best wishes, Steve

Edit Permission?
by Robert DiPietro May 17, 2020

May 17, 2020

Hi all, Thank you for maintaining these pages. The TimeComplexity page ( https://wiki.python.org/moin/TimeComplexity) has been especially helpful to me over time. I signed up to make an edit to this page, by adding the following row to the top of the *dict* table: Operation Average Case Amortized Worst Case x in d O(1) O(n) Small aside 1: I do realize that the reader can potentially figure this out from this page. But to do this, the reader needs to scroll up to the seemingly distinct *set* table, to catch the statement "See dict -- the implementation is intentionally very similar." And even then the reader is left wondering if x in d is actually constant on average. Small aside 2: I have not looked at the underlying dict code, but I did empirically verify that x in d is indeed constant on average. I assume that it's based on hashing, which then would also imply the same amortized-worst-case complexity as set. My wiki name is RobertDiPietro Cheers! Rob

Update to Python Writers Page Entry
by James Payne May 14, 2020

May 14, 2020

Hi, I was wondering if I could update my entry in the Python Writers section. The info is a little outdated - I have published another book - and was wondering if I could have it added or be given permission to add it myself. Either way, the entry should read: James Payne is currently Editor-in-Chief of the Developer Shed Network of sites and has been published in print and on the web 2000+ times. His first book, Beginning Python: Using Python 2.6 and 3.1 was published by John Wiley and his second book, Python for Teenagers was published by Apress. He can be reached at jamesrobertpayne(a)yahoo.com or by visiting his website at http://www.jamesrobertpayne.com. Thank you for your time and assistance - look forward to hearing from you! Sincerely, James Payne
