We surely will. In the meantime, I have an urgent request: *Please fix the wrapping of your emails!* Many messages in the archives of mailing lists around Twisted and Divmod require constant horizontal scrolling, and that's very annoying. It's been this way for *years*, it shouldn't be that difficult to fix Quotient, or whatever is the cause of this. Just to be clear, I read your emails perfectly, wrapped and all, via Gmane and Thunderbird. The point are *the archives*. There's lots of valuable stuff in there, but: you do a Google search, find a message, and then are confronted with the pain of horizontal scrolling. There's a good chance many people will turn away without ever reading them. In many years of reading mailing lists and newsgroups, the Quotient-originated emails are *the only ones* exhibiting this problem: that's why I think it's you that should be fixing it. Sorry for ranting, this has been getting on my nerves for too long. :-) -- Nicola Larosa - http://www.tekNico.net/ Many software developers have become hostage to the development frameworks that they utilise. In turn, many frameworks have made session state a fundamental building block of web development because it permits sloppy design. -- Alan Dean, April 2006 _______________________________________________ Twisted-web mailing list [email protected] http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-web
