Access to the Python results is currently down, but has anyone actually accessed the Coverity scan results any time recently? Or who even has access anymore?

Python Language Summit, Florence, July 2012
by Larry Hastings 01 Jun '12

01 Jun '12

Like Python? Like Italy? Like meetings? Then I've got a treat for you! I'll be chairing a Python Language Summit this July in historic Florence, Italy. It'll be on July 1st (the day before EuroPython starts) at the Grand Hotel Mediterraneo conference center. Language Summits are when the Python core contributors step away from their computers and get together for a day to argue in person. Email me if you're interested in attending; I can send you the final details and simultaneously get a rough headcount. Volunteers to take notes are greatly appreciated, //arry/

Commit privileges for Daniel Urban
by Nick Coghlan 31 May '12

31 May '12

I'm proposing we grant commit privileges to Daniel Urban. He's provided patches for a number of fixes and feature requests for 3.2 and 3.3, including a particularly thorny one in the metaclass machinery. He's been very responsive on the tracker, and accommodating of the occasional dramatic shift in direction for a patch based on mailing list feedback (most recently, the operator.build_class in C -> types.build_class in Python change). Regards, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan(a)gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia

Wording about packaging in the 3.3 announcement
by Éric Araujo 29 May '12

29 May '12

Hi Georg, I would like to clarify something in order to remove a misleading or confusing statement from the release email: > * The new "packaging" module, building upon the "distribute" and > "distutils2" projects and deprecating "distutils" First, packaging *is* distutils2, modulo a few changesets that I have to port between the codebases. Second, I would remove the mention of distribute: packaging is an implementation of the packaging PEPs which have their origins in setuptools and which have been improved by the community, and it also takes some minor features and ideas from setuptools, but I think that “building upon” is too strong (and mentioning only distribute may hurt the feelings of setuptools authors and users—distutils-sig is a heated place). My suggestion: * The new "packaging" module (also known as distutils2, and released standalone under this name), implementing the new packaging formats and deprecating "distutils". The whatsnew document has the same problem, and also mixes packaging (venv and packaging) with imports (namespace packages), but I did not get a chance to fix it before today, so I probably will after the alpha. Thanks

Alpha 4 tomorrow
by Georg Brandl 28 May '12

28 May '12

Hi all, it has been requested to delay a4 a bit more, so I will tag tomorrow either afternoon or evening UTC. It's just another alpha after all, so there is no rush to get in features yet (and I hope there won't be before beta either). Georg

Hi Sidney: Thank-you for submitting your contributor agreement form. I would like to add your form to the PSF online bug tracker. In order for me to add your contributor agreement form to your profile (on the online bug tracker) I will need to access your user number webpage or please provide the link to your "user# editing" webpage in order for me to mark (Yes) to receiving your contributor agreement form. Or, you could provide me with your "user name, user number, & real name (the way it appears on the online bug tracker "login" webpage, since I was not able to access the webpage based on the information provided on the form. The login webpage is "case sensitive", therefore, the data used to access a webpage on this site must be exact.
