Adding new lines to "Zen of Python"
I curious if there are any plans to update the "Zen of Python". What could be added to the "Zen of Python"? What do you think? Regards, Thomas Güttler -- Thomas Guettler http://www.thomas-guettler.de/ I am looking for feedback: https://github.com/guettli/programming-guidelines

Rather than 'update' the Zen of Python, it seems better to create something original, maybe derived from the Zen, and see if it becomes popular in its own right. It'd be fun to see extensions and alternatives, but there's no reason to change a classic work that helped to define the culture. Sorry to sound so preachy. It just seems wrong to change a religious text.
