The PEP was/is accepted. The problem is all the resources with the knowledge to merge it have since been reassigned. It's still pending merge into py3k.

Actually, I'm pretty sure they do offer custom pricing to some customers, but I've never heard any details.

This is fantastic. Amazon is the leader, and having them drop prices is a boon to the market as a whole. Companies who resell or add services on top of Amazon's services see an immediate benefit, as do their customers. I can't imagine how

As a hacker, and a Dad, I can't say I wasn't choked up at the end of that article and had plenty of tears in my eyes as I sat there looking at my perfect, healthy daughter. This is just another example: We in the technology sector spend a l

Yup, and that will be the same story for some time. Again, we're talking years.

Django has a roadmap at least.

The short version is this: Python-Dev is working on the release we hope people are using in a few years , not the one we hope you use in a a few months . Python 2.7 will live for a long time (years) as a stable, bug-fixed release. There

There's nothing magic - but there are a ton of libraries which make it better than what's in core. I'd recommend taking a look at monocle, eventlet/greenlet, and the other libs out there rather than trying to go it alone.

I sincerely doubt google is working on their own Python VM, given they've invested some amount of resources in PyPy in the past, and most recently Unladen Swallow (merging into Python 3).

I love bpython. It's "just enough" for me, versus ipython, which feels like an 800lbs gorilla.

Competition in the python-vm space is fantastic and I'm actually really, really happy to see PyPy maturing.

Less directed at you - but personally I've grown frustrated with the dismissiveness of the term "eye candy" - having a good design, and good UX is a good thing. Designing with the user in mind, and making tradeoffs in favor of the user is j

No, I meant in the past - when Microsoft was the top-dog and people were talking about them much in the same way as people (I) might be talking about google now. Windows had very valid reasons for becoming wildly popular - ignoring the more

That's a very, very good point - focus is another aspect (as both you and moultano say) which is an advantage to startups and companies in general. If you have focus, community (support) and a great UI/UX - Google isn't as scary.

Yup. It's startling how many corollaries can be drawn. But I have to hand it to redmond: they had the better UI design, if not the better UX.

I can honestly say - I was happy at the reaction to Eric's talk at DjangoCon, and I loved being part of the discussions after the fact. After seeing the way the Django core team has since "reacted" - maybe not just to Eric's talk, but to th

Celery is pretty awesome. Ask has done a fantastic amount of work and invested a lot of time into it. It's pretty quickly turning into the defacto task queue frontend for Django
