Typo: You meant #16R, not #16f.

Attachments don't show up either on the mailing list or the newsgroup.

Try again with the program inline in your post (if it's not too long).

Stefan, you've recently started using a lot of slang in your posts.
I suggest that this is counterproductive.  For me, it makes your
posts more difficult to read.  I can imagine that it would be even
more difficult for readers whose first language is not English.

You also indent your own new text, which is exactly the opposite of
common Usenet conventions.  (You've been doing this for a long time.)

Please consider prioritizing your readers' convenience over whatever
benefit you derive from your unconventional posting style.

I'm posting this on the comp.lang.python Usenet newsgroup.

Stefan Ram's posts to comp.lang.python include several header lines,
including "X-No-Archive: Yes".  I presume the software that copies
comp.lang.python posts to python-list pays attention to some of those
header lines.  (I personally think it's silly to impose this kind of
restriction.  The Usenet group and the mailing list are both public.)

Lawrence D'Oliveiro adds the string "(Posting On Python-List
Prohibited)" to the subject on his articles, for reasons he has
declined to discuss.  I don't know whether the software recognizes
that.

Can someone who manages the list software discuss the exact
rules?  I suggest that those rules should be documented on
.

The comp.lang.python newsgroup and the Python-list mailing list
are bidirectionally gatewayed.  Both are public.  Why is that a
problem for you?  Whose permission do you think is needed?

Re: bring back nntp library to python3

[Keith Thompson via Python-list]

"test"  writes:

> clearly lost touch

nntplib is not vanishing into thin air.  It's just not going to be part
of a default Python installation.  (It's not there in Python 3.13.0rc1.)

In my opinion the use of the word "deprecated" is misleading.

$ python3
Python 3.12.4 (main, Jun 27 2024, 13:53:59) [GCC 13.3.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import nntplib
:1: DeprecationWarning: 'nntplib' is deprecated and slated for removal 
in Python 3.13
>>>
$ 



The rationale for removing nntplib and other modules from the default
installation is explained in PEP 0594 .

"""
Back in the early days of Python, the interpreter came with a large
set of useful modules. This was often referred to as “batteries
included” philosophy and was one of the cornerstones to Python’s success
story. Users didn’t have to figure out how to download and install
separate packages in order to write a simple web server or parse email.

Times have changed. With the introduction of PyPI (née Cheeseshop),
setuptools, and later pip, it became simple and straightforward to
download and install packages. Nowadays Python has a rich and vibrant
ecosystem of third-party packages. It’s pretty much standard to either
install packages from PyPI or use one of the many Python or Linux
distributions.

[...]

The nntplib module implements the client side of the Network News
Transfer Protocol (nntp). News groups used to be a dominant platform for
online discussions. Over the last two decades, news has been slowly but
steadily replaced with mailing lists and web-based discussion
platforms. Twisted is also planning to deprecate NNTP support and pynntp
hasn’t seen any activity since 2014. This is a good indicator that the
public interest in NNTP support is declining.

The nntplib tests have been the cause of additional work in the recent
past. Python only contains the client side of NNTP, so the tests connect
to external news servers. The servers are sometimes unavailable, too
slow, or do not work correctly over IPv6. The situation causes flaky
test runs on buildbots.

No, the option and its argument can be bundled.  "-mpip" is equivalent
to "-m pip".  (The space might make it clearer for human readers.)
