I don't see those links, but I have found pydoc.org before.. but the user 
comments can be viewed where? And I can get to it with a url string how? 
And the downloadable PDF and HTML versions are where? 

I'm guessing at that last one, but like I said-- I really like the approach 
taken by the PHP folks for their online docs, it has been impressive to 
watch it change to match the needs of users. Their layout is very slick and 
much more navigable than the Python docs, which take the standard Linuxdoc 
and LaTeX2HTML style approach that is OK, but much more time consuming.

It's just a comment, nothing to get worked up about :)

The ActiveState Python has a windows help file that is convenient.
