I'm not convinced I'm altogether welcome there. I treated that list as a social list for some time, not discovering its intensity until after estranging everybody. Not to mention, I'm not primarily proposing this idea as an improvement to the reference management; it's an idea I would probably implement on the side, for an extension. I just want to know if it's valid and functional. Should I ask about it on comp.programming? Am I in the right place? Or, is my idea sophisticated and relevant enough to test the waters again? > "At Resolver we've found it useful to short-circuit any doubt and just > refer to comments in code as 'lies'. :-)" > --Michael Foord paraphrases Christian Muirhead on python-dev, 2009-3-22 P.S.
