...y the GSoC team at Google. The largest three organizations which would operate under the PSF (MoinMoin, SymPy, and PySoy) were accepted individually and there was insufficient interest from python-dev or smaller Python projects to meet the requisite 40 example student tasks. Three accepted Python organizations (out of 18 total) is an overall win for the Python community. Smaller Python projects looking to get involved are welcome to contact one of the other Python organizations to get their task...
...y saying: Our assets were up by 290K in February, reflecting the payments for PyCon registration and sponsorship. This was matched by a similar increase in liability. The next month will continue to be very busy financially, but the P&L won't show much change until we recognize the results of PyCon 2012. At that point (triggered by settling accounts with the convention center and the hotels) the accrued expense and revenue will move to the P&L and our assets and liabilities will retur...
...y ''why'' such modification was actually needed). Van expressed some concern that the association of this project with Python was not evident in the name, as it is with projects that use the 'PySomething' or 'Something for Python' naming styles. Carle Trachte noticed the derived logo used at http://pytexas.org/PyTexas2011. We felt that the modification was probably dilutive and requested that they consider a different logo, such as that used for PyTexas2010 at http://dfwpython.blogspot.com/ 20...

We started a new blogging project in partnership with the python-dev team to publicize the volunteer efforts from that group. See http://blog.python.org/ for the results. After recruiting a few contributors at PyCon (Anthony Scopatz, Paul Moore, and Brian Curtin), the project had good momentum. We started by creating a list of topics and a backlog of "easy...

...yObject *)" to "void (*)(void *)". PyObject_Del, PyObject_GC_Del are now functions instead of macros. A type can now inherit its metatype from its base type. Previously, when PyType_Ready() was called, if ob_type was found to be NULL, it was always set to &PyType_Type; now it is set to base->ob_type, where base is tp_base, defaulting to &PyObject_Type. PyType_Ready() accidentally did not inherit tp_is_gc; now it does. The PyCore_* family of APIs have been removed. The ...

If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will. LUKE: Is Perl better than Python? YODA: No... no... no. Quicker, easier, more seductive.
