You may get more helpful results if you add more information to your
question. Also, be aware that you're asking volunteers to donate their
time to you; according to the timestamps, it's less than a day since
your original post. Granted, python-list IS a heavily-trafficked and
fast-responding list (unlike several others I'm on, on which a week's
delay is entirely possible), but even so, prodding should probably be
left off until it's been rather longer. On the other hand, if your
follow-up is adding a pile of additional (useful!) information, it
won't look like a ping, and it actually will improve your chances of a
reply.

Here's a helpful resource on asking questions on these sorts of lists:

Keep in mind that nobody's paid to help you, so you have to make us
_want_ to respond. One of the best ways to do that is to make it easy
for us to help you.
