I don't 100% agree with that. E.g., there are better protocols when you need real-time conversations, because (internet) email isn't necessarily good at that (by design). And I'm sure there are other circumstances or purposes where another protocol/standard is more appropriate. But in general, email is pretty good. :) -- Jan Claeys _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
