This is where the current project status is described and/or will be discussed, and where you'll find pointers to more resources. Note:I have made one change to the text of the propos...

Python Success Stories Introduction This article shows how I integrated Python, COM, DocBook, OpenJade, and Word together to create a documentation tool for BEACON, a visual programming environment. This documentation tool was used for code reviews in the software development methodology at my company, and led to significant (>$1M) in cost savings. Before starting this project, I had no prior experience using SGML, XML, or other document markup languages. It was only when I was perilously ...

...getting women and minorities into computer programming--currently, these groups are vastly underrepresented. The recently popular open source movement [OpenSource] is promising to improve the quality of key software packages through the peer review of thousands, as well as the ability for programmers to "scratch their own itch" (i.e., tweak the software in a minor way that only one individual cares about). We expect that moving from thousands to millions or billions of programmers will fu...

This implements a slightly simplified and modified version of the package import semantics pioneered by the "ni" module. "Package import" is a method to structure Python's module namespace by using "dotted module names". For example, the module name A.B designates a submodule named B in a package named A. Just like...
