...and time types in the datetime module. There's no support for parsing strings in various formats and returning a corresponding instance of one of the types. This PEP proposes adding a family of predefined parsing function for several commonly used date and time formats, and a facility for generic parsing. The types provided by the datetime module all have .isoformat() and .ctime() methods that return string representations of a time, and the .strftime() method can be used to construct new forma...
...andard library. It is expected that deprecated modules are included in the Python release that immediately follows the deprecation; later releases may ship without the deprecated modules. For modules existing in both Python 2.7 and Python 3.5 In order to facilitate writing code that works in both Python 2 & 3 simultaneously, any module that exists in both Python 3.5 and Python 2.7 will not be removed from the standard library until Python 2.7 is no longer supported as specified by PEP 373. ...
...and the CDN which provides most of the benefit of the auto discovery and consistent naming scheme this PEP proposes to first deprecate and then remove the [a..z].pypi.python.org names for mirrors and the last.pypi.python.org name for the auto discovery protocol. The ability to mirror and the method of mirror will not be affected and will continue to exist as written in PEP 381. Operators of existing mirrors are encouraged to acquire their own domains and certificates to use for their mirrors if ...

...and methods) For databases that do not have cursors and for simple applications that do not require the complexity of a cursor, a Connection Object should respond to each of the attributes and methods of the Cursor Object. Databases that have cursor can implement this by using an implicit, internal cursor. Cursor Objects These objects represent a database cursor, which is used to manage the context of a fetch operation. Cursor Objects should respond to the following methods and attributes: ...

The easiest way to tell you're dealing with a computer is when the other side keeps making the same moronic misteakes over and misteakes over and misteakes over and misteakes over and misteakes over and misteakes CTRL-C again. > Hey Tim: How many chickens does it take to cross the road?

...and the Python community! I no longer feel the need to defend Python: the statistics and developments listed in Mark's Preface speak for themselves. In the past year, Python has made great strides. We released Python 2.0, a big step forward, with new standard library features such as Unicode and XML support, and several new syntactic constructs, including augmented assignment: you can now write x += 1 instead of x = x+1. A few people wondered what the big deal was (answer: instead o...
...and we did not want to hurt them. So, for many years, we have kept improving and publishing both Python 2 and Python 3. But this makes it hard to improve Python. There are improvements Python 2 can't handle. And we have less time to work on making Python 3 better and faster. And if many people keep using Python 2, then that makes it hard for the volunteers who use Python to make software. They can't use the good new things in Python 3 to improve the tools they make. We did not want to hurt the p...
...and by consensus: :: The mission of the Outreach and Education Committee is to increase the number of Python users, especially in under-represented demographics. The Committee will identify key initiatives and programs toward this goal that the PSF can assist in, fund or help guide. The Committee will make recommendations to the membership, the board and its committees; initiate and coordinate outreach projects; and act as a guiding hand for the PSF in this...
...and sponsor members proper), and suggests to use the term "sponsor" for members and "donor" for other supporters. 6. Member meeting Jeremy reminds the board that PSF members must be invited to the member meeting at PyCon. Board candidates should step forward on the PSF list, and new member nominations should be posted there as well. 7. PSF forms Martin suggests to use Rosen's form as-is. Marc-Andre is -1 on that proposal, asking for several forms of contribution. Guido says he likes fewer f...

Here are some suggestions for our sponsor companies that demonstrate a willingness to help the Python community: Offer to run a Python-related meetup periodically Support a local meetup by providing a free venue, speakers or food and beverage Sponsor PyCon and/or a regional Python conference or event Support the PSF’s miss...
...and AskFolder. The old macfs.StandardGetFile and friends are deprecated. Most of the standard library now uses pathnames or FSRefs in preference of FSSpecs, and use the underlying Carbon.File and Carbon.Folder modules in stead of macfs. macfs will probably be deprecated in the future. Type Carbon.File.FSCatalogInfo and supporting methods have been implemented. This also makes macfs.FSSpec.SetDates() work again. There is a new module pimp, the package install manager for Python, and accompanying ...

This section describes a standard way of defining these error handlers.

The handler must be a Python callable taking the following arguments: errorhandler(connection, cursor, errorclass, errorvalue) where c...

...Andre notes the minutes to ASF meetings carry timestamps in them. Jeremy points out a few comments and omissions he feels are out of place in official meeting minutes. The comments are taken into advisement for the next minutes, and Guido will adjust the last minutes to suit and post them for approval to the mailing list. Several points of order were raised, on the procedure to accept the minutes and on the procedure to propose, second and vote on motions. 2) Progress r...
