I'm unaware of such a policy, but I may have missed the relevant
discussion. I could understand that questions of the kind "I tried
to build Python on X, and the compiler gave me the error message
Y" are for comp.lang.python - these messages are really the of the
"I need help" kind.

The specific message was more of the "I would like to change
code fragment X to Y to make it work on platform Z" kind - although
in the end, he still indicated that he appreciated help.

Oh well,

Martin
