I've been singing and dancing about the ease of porting for a while now, but it's mostly thanks to the fact that I never had to do any Unicode tomfoolery. Now with this PEP, the game gets easier for a lot more people. Does anyone have a good porting experience they'd like to share, which I could maybe use as a PR effort for us? Barry, I know you wrote some pretty solid coverage of your DBus port. Anyone else? Personal projects or work stuff (assuming its ok to share). blog.python.org has been asleep for a while and a good porting testimonial might be a way to jumpstart it, or I can get it on the python.org front page. If you have anything to share on that front, please contact me directly. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
