The canonical answer is, roughly, 'it can'. A standard addendum is to say that contributions are always welcome. A common clarification of that is to point out that in open source projects, somebody has to volunteer to do the work, or somebody has to be willing to pay for it to be done. Which are you? Personally, I have little problem with Python's docs, so I'm certainly going to focus my negligible free time elsewhere. (Like rambling on and on answering newsgroup postings. :-) If you felt strongly enough about the negative aspects of Python's docs, you would be looking for places where you could make a contribution. (Lack of experience is not only not an excuse, but is probably an excellent qualification for the job!) -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
