• Python Software Foundation: Minutes of Board of Directors Meeting, January 10, 2006

  ...Linux at least (psf.pollenation.net and pyramid.pollenation.net). Section 6, PSF Member Meeting: J. Hylton took on the task of finding someone to send out member meeting notices & proxy forms. Status: carried forward. Section 6, PSF Member Meeting: M. von Löwis volunteered to ensure that the necessary steps are taken for the member meeting. Status: in progress. M. von Löwis reports that he created the various forms, and posted an email invitation. We should set a deadline for closing the...

• Python 1.6.1

  ...linuxaudiodev - audio for Linux. mmap - treat a file as a memory buffer. (Windows and Unix.) sre - regular expressions (fast, supports unicode). Currently, this code is very rough. Eventually, the re module will be reimplemented using sre (without changes to the re API). filecmp - supersedes the old cmp.py and dircmp.py modules. tabnanny - check Python sources for tab-width dependance. (Moved from Tools/scripts/.) urllib2 - new and improved but incompatible version of urllib (still experimen...

  ...Linux desktop. He is having trouble finding Python programmers who can develop "in the large" (large-scale, industrial applications). He feels there is a lack of a centralized place that acts as a rallying point for the community. For example, there is no one place people can go to find out what the community-supported web frameworks are. Shuttleworth suggested having a place that lists the best of breed in hopes of getting developers to work on them instead of constantly reinventing...

• What's new in Python 2.3

  ...Linux and some BSD flavors. Code by Greg Ward, based on the (now deprecated) linuxaudiodev module by Peter Bosch. (New in 2.3a2: because of driver issues, the tests for these modules is not run by default unless "regrtest.py -u audio" is used.) pickle, cPickle and copy - a new pickling protocol was added for more efficient pickling of (especially) new-style class instances and to allow more pickling flexibility. (PEP 307) (New in 2.3a2.) random - this now uses a new core generator,...

• 2007-04-09 PSF Board Meeting Minutes

  ...Linux and OpenOffice for desktops; perhaps the PSF could write a white paper about PyUno. Suggestion for python.org: write a page about the history of the software. Write a comparison of Python and PHP. M. von Löwis noted that one action item is Mailman, and asked if we should pay money to ramp it up graphically (like: paying a graphics designer?). S. Deibel replied that he suspects asking community-wide for help with improving the look would work. M. von Löwis: "I believe that engineer...

• Python Success Stories

  ...Linux, Mac OS X and others. However, in our case, Resolver One uses a 3rd party grid component in our GUI, which makes direct Win32 API calls. This precludes us running on different platforms for the time being. We are, however, working on a Mono-compatible version of Resolver Server, which is a version of Resolver One which publishes editable spreadsheets over the web, without displaying any GUI on the server. No Python C Extension Modules IronPython scripts can in general import and use regu...

• What's New In Python 3.0

  ...Linux, although under Windows it fails at a later point. Issue #3279: Importing site at interpreter was failing silently because the site module uses the open builtin which was not initialized at the time. Issue #3660: Corrected a reference leak in str.encode() when the encoder does not return a bytes object. Issue #3774: Added a few more checks in PyTokenizer_FindEncoding to handle error conditions. Issue #3594: Fix Parser/tokenizer.c:fp_setreadl() to open the file being tokenized by either a f...

• 2008-05-12 PSF Board Meeting Minutes

  ...Linux, Apache, MySql, PHP and Python software. Challenged to produce a system quickly and at a low cost we turned to Python to develop and test features and functionality for our website. Our programming team was already familiar with it and explained that Python had a reputation for being powerful while getting the job done quickly. They suggested we develop our first models using Python and so that's the route we decided on. After 6 months of hard work in our basement we launched our busines...

  ...Linux AU $1,593 Kiwi PyCon 843 SciKit/Learn Sprint 4,816 Our expense for the SciKit/Learn Sprint will be covered by a $5000 donation to the PSF by Google. Expense: Outside Services: Wendroff / QBOL 1,477 The treasurer goes on to say: Most of my time was spent on paying PyCon vendor invoices, processing sponsor payments and working on completing the PyCon accounting detail in QBOL. There was also an unusually large amount of Board interface and HR activi...

• Computer Programming for Everybody

  ...Linux indicates that there is value to this claim. We believe that the next step, having millions of programmers, will cause a change of a different quality-the abundant availability of personalized software. The tools needed for this new way to look at programming will be different than the tools currently available to professional programmers. We intend to greatly improve both the training material and the development tools available. As an example, non-professional programmers sho...

  ...linuxaudiodev.py) are no longer run by default. This is because they don't always work, depending on your hardware and software. To run these tests, you must use an invocation like ./python Lib/test/regrtest.py -u audio test_ossaudiodev On systems which build using the configure script, compiler flags which used to be lumped together using the OPT flag have been split into two groups, OPT and BASECFLAGS. OPT is meant to carry just optimization- and debug-related flags like "-g" a...
