[Python-Dev] Re: Python-dev mailing lis archives earlier than late April 1999?

Thanks. During my first attempts at applying date range filters on Google
Groups, everything came up empty, even for later dates (1999-ish), so I
thought perhaps they were gone. I am now getting results. I don't know if I
originally hit GG while it was napping or something, but I am getting
useful results now. (1/1/94-1/1/95 yields results, while 1/1/93-1/1/94
comes up empty.)

This appears to be the first message, on that most persistent of mailing
list/newsgroup topics, "Am I First?":

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.lang.python/kCAxphFFnn4

Post #2 had more meat (Python FAQ):

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.lang.python/Nkrro8yfZoo

Thanks for the help, folks. I believe I am off and running...

Yes, I am sad that my support is not sufficient for closing the gap to
being a recognized platform. No additional discussion. IMHO - while AIX
may not be important to Python - Python working properly is important
for AIX users who need applications developed using Python. My start
came about because I was asked to help to get a Python application
working - and that continues to be my primary area of interest -
supporting users.

In that sense - supporting users (and I see someone doing a self-build
as a user) I am willing to re-work the information needed to build
Python3 on AIX. Where the file is stored is not exciting. IMHO, not
having that directory may make it easier to find. I only found it by
using find, xargs, and grep.

Fast forward - thank you Petr - I'll get something started and add a
link, read replace the current contents with a link, once I have
something - and whether this info ever becomes part of the distribution,
or not - is something that can be determined later.

A more generalized Python code search across GitHub of "orderedset" returns
~500k results: https://github.com/search?l=Python&q=orderedset&type=Code .

Of course, a general code search across GitHub is by no means a clear or
reliable measure of actual usage, considering the number of duplicate
results. But, it's still useful for rough estimations.
