I have created a wiki page in Python.org with a list of such 'favourite' modules. Please take a look: http://wiki.python.org/moin/UsefulModules I put some of the modules I could remember being praised here. I hope I didn't miss any (well, save for web frameworks, I haven't been paying much attention) I hope I haven't made a mess, it was my first edit into python's wiki. I wasn't sure where to stick it, so I added it under DevelopmentTools. I hope the page helps somebody! (Today I'm "hopey" :) Bye, Ismael +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ That is a good idea, and a nice page. Another would be to implement some "social tagging" as on del.icio.us. It's kind of a popularity contest, but that's really what's wanted here, I think. OTOH, the wiki is probably the first place anyone would look, and I saw most of the modules I already use, and I learned about a couple that look very promising. One that I use a lot is Amara (http://uche.ogbuji.net/tech/4suite/amara/manual) for making xml more pythonic. Not to take anything away from ElementTree, it's a fine package; but I find Amara easier to use. Some others that seem 'missing': PIL and NumPy. I didn't try to put it on the wiki page because I wanted the tutors to have a chance to comment first. Anyway, thanks for the page. I have it bookmarked!
