this https://wiki.python.org/moin/GoogleGroupsPython to prevent us
seeing double line spacing and single line paragraphs, thanks.
And admonitions of this type should be taken to
comp.misc.propernntpformatting or
groups.google.com/propergroupsformatting. They are OT for a list devoted
to the Python programming language. I'd rather see flame wars over
indenting vs. curly braces than this kind of constant policing of folks
who come to us via Google: they greatly increase the noise I have to
filter out.
Kevin, feel free to filter out all of Mark's messages. People posting
from Google groups do not know that messages look like the above after a
few rounds thru gg since gg apparently corrects its own misformatting in
its displays. Most people pay attention to Mark's information. I
ignore those who do not and send quad- or octo-spaced messages.
I have asked on python-list-admin that the same info be sent to new gg
posters automatically and privately, or that the extra blanks be
filtered out, but to no avail.
