Hey Ben and others,

Sorry if my previous message came across as being rude. It really
wasn't meant so. And it definitely wasn't meant as a personal attack
on anyone. I just wish that a little bit of time would be taken before
jumping in with comments.

As for Python-ideas, I had taken as granted that people posting would
have more than a passing interest in language design and the nature of
Python. Obviously a false assumption. I apologise for this.

I think there is a *lot* of value in many of the ideas that float
around. On this list, python-dev, irc channels and even in the
blogosphere. The problem is that few of these ideas get the real time
and attention that they deserve.

And seeing as all of our time is limited. And that the resources for
the development of Python itself is limited. Ideally we would focus
them more constructively and selectively.

But then, this is the internet -- I should stop being an idealist ;p

Thanks again for bearing with me.

love, tav
