...about its origins, adding a bit of personal philosophy. Over six years ago, in December 1989, I was looking for a "hobby" programming project that would keep me occupied during the week around Christmas. My office (a government-run research lab in Amsterdam) would be closed, but I had a home computer, and not much else on my hands. I decided to write an interpreter for the new scripting language I had been thinking about lately: a descendant of ABC that would appeal to Unix/C hacker...
...about Mac-specific issues of Python. The list is primarily meant to discuss design and implementation of Python on the Mac, and possibly coordinate the actual implementation work done. The topics can include such varying things as a Python development environment, using Python for CGI-scripts, OSA support, OpenDoc parts, MacOS toolbox access, Tk, etc. While the list is developer-oriented this should not stop python-users (or, in other words, people developing with Python instead of for Python) ...
...about active and inactive lists. Over a dozen graphical user-interface Python modules have been developed. While this speaks to the power of Python's extension capabilities, there is significant interest in defining a commonly available GUI system for Python that would facilitate the interchange of and cooperation on tools, such as software development environments, that require or benefit from GUI interfaces.

...about this one: def f2(list): return reduce(lambda string, item: string + chr(item), list, "") This version performs exactly the same set of string operations as the first one, but gets rid of the for loop overhead in favor of the faster, implied loop of the reduce() function. Sure, I replied, but it does so at the cost of a function call (the lambda function) per list item. I betcha it's slower, since function call overhead in Python is bigger than for loop ov...
...about Python. R. Hettinger has prepared a list of potential contributors." D. Mertz: "I've talked with R. Hettinger about the [book] idea." T. Peters: "Is the project asking the PSF for something tangible?" D. Mertz: "R. Hettinger's idea is to "honor" the work of a bunch of core developers by having them write about what they've done." S. Holden: "So this discussion was more of a heads-up than anything else. It would be good to have al...
...about and intend to fix in a following patch release. These bugs may simply be in the test suite, but they may indicate bugs in Python. test_grp and test_pwd may fail. We've had reports of this on Unix systems that use a "+" at the beginning of a line in the /etc/group or /etc/passwd file to indicate NIS/YP or LDAP consultation. The bugs may also be related to duplicate id in these files. See SourceForge bug reports number 775964 and 779218. AssertionError: AEST from test_time. We...
