Yeah, it's mine. I don't have plans to do anything with it except as a test site for Google App Engine (mostly to test dealings with custom domains). I do plan to keep the "Yes Barry there is a Pythonlabs" content up at the main page. > It's a cute place to forward folks to when they ask about it. Agreed. :-) > As far as where the domain should point (i.e. the content being the same), > again, that should be Guido's decision, but I don't see any reason to keep the > GAE up just for that. The content could be served from dinsdale just fine. I don't plan to point the domain back to anywhere on python.org. You might still want to keep python.org/pythonlabs around (and a link to it from elsewhere on the site, e.g. in a wiki, so search engines can find it) but I don't expect you'll ever need the vhost. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido) _______________________________________________ pydotorg-www mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pydotorg-www
