In case you are interested in a bit more background: Chuck Bearden, Eric
Morgan, Dan Chudnov, Rob Fox and I were chatting about creating a list for the
disucssion of general programming in libraries.
Chuck's recently been digging into Python a bit more, and Dan's just all over
the map :), so we thought perhaps a higher level discussion of programming
in libraries could be interesting. No sooner said than Eric went and created
code4lib.
So if you are intersted just send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and put this in the body:
subscribe code4lib Larry Ritchie Rasmus Gosling Von Rossum III
...substituting with your name of course :)
