By the way (and in the vain (sic) of shameless self-promotion...) there was a suggestion on Dobbs Python-URL that the inclusion of some of my material on urllib2 would be welcome in the tutorial.
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/browse_frm/thread/1d52898f07b7dfcd/d015de23ad6818fa My tutorial is at : http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/urllib2.shtml The most appropriate sections to include would be on fetching URLs and handling errors, and possibly the basic authentication example. It probably fits best in the 'Brief tour of the standard library'. Would that be welcomed ? It is currently in rest format - and html of course ;-) Is reST acceptable for *someone* to add this material - and if so, what should I do about it ? By the way my vote is -1 on moving to html as the standard markup format and +1 on working on docutils to turn that into an usable input format. Additionally - having a wiki version, or a version that accepts user commentary would be a very useful way of gathering additional information. Of course someone has to maintain this... I think AMK did a simple implementation of this a while ago - although it had usability issues and the resulting data didn't seem to be used. I guess this is all part of the ongoing discussion. All the best, Fuzzyman http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/index.shtml _______________________________________________ Doc-SIG maillist - Doc-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/doc-sig
