  • Web SIG

    Web SIG The Python Web SIG is dedicated to improving Python's support for interacting with World Wide Web services and clients.

  • Debugging Reference Count Problems

    ...lists/tuples with new objects that have been created with an initial reference count of 1, which nicely matches their behavior.) On the other hand, PySequence_SetItem(list, index, item) *does* increment the reference count of the item. And it is considered reference count neutral. (But it doesn't work for tuples, which are immutable; this is why you need PyTuple_SetItem().) 2) What the heck is going on with printing? Am I somehow saving the object from ignoble destruction by ca...

Thomas adds that he misunderstood Affero's plan, and suggests that each list owners can decide on his own. Guido says that list owner will likely come to the same conclusion, making it a subscriber choice. So the PSF does not need to act. David says that we are already one of the Affero's funds. Tim reports that he cannot find the PS...

We have decided that January 1, 2020, was the day that we sunset Python 2. That means that we will not improve it anymore after that day, even if someone finds a security problem in it. You should upgrade to Python 3 as soon as you can. Why are you doing this? We needed to sunset Python 2 so we can help Python users by improving Python faster. We released Pyth...

  • The Python 2.3 Method Resolution Order

    ...lists, then add it to the linearization of C and remove it from the lists in the merge, otherwise look at the head of the next list and take it, if it is a good head. Then repeat the operation until all the class are removed or it is impossible to find good heads. In this case, it is impossible to construct the merge, Python 2.3 will refuse to create the class C and will raise an exception. This prescription ensures that the merge operation preserves the ordering, if the ordering can be preser...
