Folks, mail to guido@python.org may have been bouncing or dropped in a black hole, since approximately 12:40 pm EST today -- due to a mail server problem at my ISP (@home.com -- fast reliable cable bandwidth but lousy mail and DNS service). I found out about this and *thought* I had fixed it by switching to guido@digicool.com, but in fact there was still a forward to @home.com in effect. I just finally fixed that (around 10:10 pm EST). You don't need to change the email address you have for me: guido@python.org is still the preferred address. However if you sent me mail between the approximate times above, I probably haven't seen it yet. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
