Re: Python mascot proposal
Please note that to make something official, it has to be passed through the Python Software Foundation, which holds the intellectual property for Python and is responsible for trademarks associated with the language. If you're serious about doing this, you may want to email "psf at python dot org" to get information from the board of directors (I'm one of them, BTW, but I can't speak for the whole group). It would be nice to have a single strongly identifiable visual trademark for Python. There are many icons/logos that people have invented but none that's "official" and having many tends to dilute the ability to build a strong well-known visual trademark. - Stephan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Please donate to the Python Software Foundation
Hi, I'm writing to urge members of the Python community to please keep the Python Software Foundation in mind in your "year end giving". The PSF is the 501(c)3 non-profit organization that holds and protects the intellectual property rights behind Python. We deal with the licensing, contribution agreements, and legal requirements of copyright and trademark in order to keep Python open and free of legal claims. The PSF also: * Provides the financial backing that makes PyCon possible: http://us.pycon.org/ * Funds special projects such as the recent website redesign: http://python.org/ and the current Python Advocacy Coordinator experiment: http://python.org/psf/grants/advocacy/orig-proposal.pdf http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonAdvocacyCoordinator * Funds grants: http://www.python.org/psf/grants/ * Responds to legal queries about the license, trademarks, or US export control registration, owns/renews the key Python domain names, and other such administrative chores. How to Donate - We take credit cards, checks, wire transfers, and PayPal: http://www.python.org/psf/donations/ Donations are tax deductible for US citizens and for any business where donations or sponsorship can be considered pre-tax business expenses. Businesses can also consider becoming a sponsor member of the PSF: http://www.python.org/psf/sponsorship/ Or, become a sponsor of PyCon 2007: http://us.pycon.org/TX2007/HowToSponsor If you have any questions, please email me directly.

If you don't hear from us in response to a question, something has gone wrong (either we didn't get your email or ours got filtered). In this case, there was a typo in the reply-to email message and I didn't manage to figure out the correct email address to reply to until now.

We certainly didn't intend to be insulting. This it the most common cause of auto-completion problems but you are right that it's a mis-diagnosis on our part if it was just one method. We respond to sometimes hundreds of emails a day ,so we do make mistakes. It may be solved by using Reanalyze File from the right-click context menu on the editor but there's no gaurantee. This is incredibly complex code with many layers of highly optimized tokenizing, analysis, inference, caching, and then display in the various tools in Wing so it often takes a bit more time to find where the bug is. By the way, Wing 3.0 beta1 fixes a number of bugs that would lead to bad analysis, including missing methods as a result of failure to track edits in a file properly. It also improves reading completion info out of extension modules and properly handles several forms of import where it fell on its face previously. Hope that's useful... please let me know if not. - Stephan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
