I dunno, my experiences in that group have been less than welcoming, but i won't beat a dead horse... > If you want to interact with Guido, you need to go to > a list he frequents.

I'm not so much interested in talking with Guido personally, i would just like to see him participate in more areas of this community instead of keeping himself all couped-up in those "members only" forums. I see no need for the Python community to be purposefully stratified into social classes. But i cannot help but feel that some folks in this community have declared themselves members of an aristocracy. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
