IMO, I don't see a need for yet another forum. The dividing lines become a bit too blurry, and it will result in questions like "where do I post this?" Or "what is the difference between python-lang@python.org and python-list@python.org?"
Well, you admit that yhou don't read python-list, right? Most of us don't, most of the time. Instead we have important discussions about the language's future on python-dev, where most of the Python community cannot participate. I'll say it flat out: I'm uncomfortable with that. I did not include meta-sig because (or python-list) because my issue is really with the accidental elitism of the python-dev setup. If python-dev participants do not agree to have important linguistic discussions in an open forum then setting up the forum is a waste of time. That's why I'm feeling people here out first. -- Paul Prescod - ISOGEN Consulting Engineer speaking for himself "I want to give beauty pageants the respectability they deserve." - Brooke Ross, Miss Canada International
