In private communication Eric Deng told me about the same thing.
I don't think I really care, but I'm flabbergasted to see a paper
being accepted without anybody having the possibility to verify
or falsify its contents. I hope we'll do better for EPC 2002, the
EuroPython conference in June: http://www.europython.org.
