Few suggestions.

1. Core Python.

"features of the python language" => "Language Features"

2. Scientific Computing

Scientific Computing is repeated. Pls replace with "Libraries" or
"Scientific/Numeric Libraries" or similar.

3. We have had quite a number of submissions from embedded
/RT systems over the years. The current sections don't address it.

Please add a "Embedded/Real-time Python" and complete it with
- Embedded Python, Device Interfacing, Robotics.

4. We need another section for Nosql/big-data systems. Example
- Redis for Python. Could be titled "Python for big-data" - Databases,
Nosql systems, Cloud Computing, RestFul Interfaces.

5. Please add another section for "Others" for anything else
that doesn't belong to the main sections.
