Re: [pydotorg-www] Fix broken links

Hi Iulian,

please try again to create an account - the server sometimes
has too many things going on (mostly due to the automated bots
hitting it), so it may take a while before it can handle a
registration request.

Thanks,

Re: [pydotorg-www] Edits of Python GUI pages

2018-08-20 Thread Mike Barnett
I'm hiring someone to create a real, legit, professional Wikipedia page so that 
I can get embedded in a few pages if possible.   The other packages mentioned 
all have nice looking pages, so I figure if I want to play with the bigger 
boys, I better put on big-boy pants.

Can I ask another question?

Is there a nomination process for getting things in front of Python decision 
makers?  I really and truly believe I stumbled into an architecture that solves 
Python's GUI problem.  I don't care who takes credit for it, despite it being 
my creation, I just want to make a diference.  Maybe the implemenation kinda 
sucks, but it's the interface I'm talking about.

I would like to push it as far as I can to see what can happen.

I do understand that building a user base is necessary.  It's an ongoing thing. 
 I'm looking ahead to future next steps.

The point of verification is mainly to ensure that you're a genuine human 
being. You're absolutely welcome to go ahead and make whatever edits you feel 
would improve the wiki.

Hi Steve!

GOSH, I’m impressed you guys are SO ON IT!

I received messages within MINUTES of requesting access…. And you’re both so 
NICE about it!

It was really generous of you to OK more edits if I think helpful. One thing 
the pages could use is a good scrub of what’s actively maintained and what is 
not.  I think that categorization would help beginners the best.  Perhaps a new 
column to the table?  Or is that what the “latest release date” is supposed to 
handle?

I appreciate all you guys do to help people.  It’s a selfless kind of thing to 
do.  I’m doing my best to help people with PySimpleGUI.  I have no agenda other 
than to forever change the way GUIs work on Python   It’s PAST TIME for a 
reworking of what’s available and I think I’ve got just the architecture to do 
it.

If you have 5 minutes sometime and are in need of a quick GUI for a utility, 
consider giving it a try.  It’s pip installable or you can simply copy and 
paste the SINGLE PySimpleGUI.py file into your project folder.

Thanks again for the help and encouragement.  It’s this kind of stuff that 
keeps me going.

Hi Mike,

I see Chris has sorted out access for you. I think the whole area of GUI 
documentation is in need of some love, so if you want to do some curation that 
would be really useful (though naturally you shouldn't feel obliged to do 
anything - this is open source).

It's confusing for readers the way the material is currently organised, and 
much of it is now of historical interest only (there will never be another 
Pyjamas release, for example). If you have the time and the inclination I'm 
sure you would be helping many readers.

Hi

I read that I need to request to make edits.

I would like to add the package PySimpleGUI to the list of GUIs on this page:
https://wiki.python.org/moin/GUI%20Programming%20in%20Python

and on this page:
https://wiki.python.org/moin/GuiProgramming

There are only 3 packages listed on that page that have been updated in 2018?  
Wow.
