[Python-Dev] Python in first-year MIT core curriculum

2006-11-18 Thread Ka-Ping Yee
Wow.  Did you catch this news?

http://www-tech.mit.edu/V125/N65/coursevi.html

The first four weeks of C1 will be a lot like the first
four weeks of 6.001, Abelson said. The difference is
that programming will be done in Python and not Scheme.

[Python-Dev] discussion of schema for new issue tracker starting

2006-11-18 Thread Brett Cannon

Discussion of what we want in terms of the schema for the new issue tracker
has begun.  If you wish to give feedback on what you would like each issue
to have in terms of data then please file an issue in the meta tracker at
http://psf.upfronthosting.co.za/roundup/meta/ .  You can see the current
test tracker at http://psf.upfronthosting.co.za/roundup/tracker/ .  And the
tracker-discuss mailing list is at
http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-discuss (although you can
bypass the list and use the meta tracker to your ideas relating to the
schema).

If you do participate through the meta tracker please sign up for an account
so that it is not anonymous.  I really hope that Anthony and Neal can
participate so that we can make sure the tracker does what they need to make
their lives easier during a release.  And obviously everyone who still works
with bugs and patches should participate as well.  We can change the schema
even after we launch to the new tracker, but it would be nice to minimize
the amount of feature churn once the tracker is up and going.
