Actually, this list is less busy than it was a decade or two ago, but
that's probably because of things like stackoverflow, python-dev, pypy-dev,
cython-devel, python-ideas, distutils-sig, issue trackers, code-quality,
and probably others.

There was a time when most python-related discussion happened here on
python-list/comp.lang.python.
