There are at least 3 and maybe 6 or more of us who still read
c.l.py (though I've dropped back to newsgroup so I can skip
the braindead threads). As a partial solution, perhaps we
could use some self-discipline and sometimes say "kick it to
c.l.py". I, for one, would be willing to _help_ (not "assume
responsibility for"!) monitoring threads of this sort and
summarizing back to the dev list.
For ideas on which Guido is > -0, I think this might be a good
way to guage reaction.
