cleaning up the email addresses in the PEPs
by Brett Cannon June 20, 2007

June 20, 2007

I am working on some code in the sandbox to automatically generate PEP 0. This is also leading to code that checks all the PEPs follow some basic guidelines. One of those guidelines is an author having a single email address. The Owners index at the bottom of PEP 0 is going to be created from the names and email addresses found in the PEPs themselves. But that doesn't work too well when an author has multiple addresses listed. If you are listed below, please choose a single address to use. … [View More]

Inspect Patch for IronPython (and Jython?) Compatibility
by Michael Foord June 20, 2007

June 20, 2007

Hello all, I've just submitted a patch on sourceforge to make inspect compatible with IronPython (and Jython I think). This patch originally comes from the IPCE ( http://fepy.sf.net ) project by Seo Sanghyeon. It is a trivial change really. The patch is number 1739696 http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1739696&group_id=5… It moves getting a reference to 'code.co_code' into the body of the loop responsible for inspecting anonymous (tuple) arguments.

Multi-line comments - a case for PEP 3099?
by Georg Brandl June 19, 2007

June 19, 2007

Hi, we got another feature request for multi-line comments. While it is nice to comment out multiple lines at once, every editor that deserves that name can add a '#' to multiple lines. And there's always "if 0" and triple-quoted strings... Georg

Upgrade of {www,svn}.python.org
by "Martin v. Löwis" June 18, 2007

June 18, 2007

I'd like to upgrade www.python.org this coming Thursday (June 21), between 6:00am and 12:00am UTC. During that time, neither www nor subversion access will be available (although I hope that I need much less than 6 hours). mail.python.org, and all other services running on other machines, will continue to work. I will send another message when I start. Regards, Martin
