Hi,
I forgot to send this earlier, but I'm in NYC until the end of August.
Would be glad to meet some fellow committers, if there are any around.
Regards
Antoine.
Via Gary Bernhardt, here's an interesting study on things that can
make Python code hard to read:
http://arxiv.org/pdf/1304.5257.pdf
(I suggest trying the experiment yourself on Figure 1, before
continuing on to read the explanation in the text - the result may
surprise you!)
I've also followed up with the researchers regarding the experimental
design for their vertical whitespace question - I think it has some
flaws that limit its applicability in real world code, so perhaps I
can interest them in getting another paper out of it :)
Cheers,
Nick.

Hi,
Ben Hoyt (benhoyt(a)gmail.com) is working on the os.scandir() PEP 471:
http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0471/
Currently, he send me the PEP text and I update the repository. Would
it be possible to give him access to the repository directly? (only to
the peps reposistory)
