Sorry Victor, I must have misinterpreted this snippet from the mailbot.
Maybe it would be a good idea to re-word it? I'll be happy to open an
issue for that in an appropriate mailing list if you think that would help.
> Welcome to the Python-Dev@python.org <mailto:Python-Dev@python.org>
mailing list! If you are a new subscriber, please take the time to
introduce yourself briefly in your first post. It is appreciated if you
lurk around for a while before posting! :-)
Not sure what the original intent was, but I read that as: "Whenever you
get to sending your first post, include an introduction in it. But,
before you start actively participating, take your time to hang around
and absorb the culture."
Perhaps we want to reverse the two sentences to put them in
chronological order?
I'm not sure what the proper forum for this discussion would be.
I talked to Barry Warsaw about https://bugs.python.org/issue36837 and he
said I should post to python-dev to get feedback. I'll work on that
email and post back here once I'm happy with it.
Thanks,
Ben

I've been using Python for maybe 7 years now. I started to learn it
in college to help with accounting homework and I continue to use it
now for personal projects ranging from small scripts to larger
applications and in my day job as a LinkedIn Site Reliability Engineer.

python-dev is not the proper mail to introduce yourself to contribute.
I suggest you to start reading http://devguide.python.org/ and please
send the same email to core-mentorship mailing list:
https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/core-mentorship.python.org/?x=22
It would help if you can elaborate on which parts of Python you would
be interested to contribute ;-)
