pdoc3 maintainer here. Appreciate the chance to defend my position. While I like to think the Python community benefits from my fork of the pdoc project (I likely wouldn't have put such effort into it otherwise!), I can't convincingly claim the project's website or its light-hearted author are wholly idiot-proof. 😅
I have read PSF's Python Community Code of Conduct and can't find a single angle upon which my activity, either within work on the project or in my editing of the wiki, appear to breach it. Neither am I a purposeful troll, for the most part anyway. Time will reveal for sure, but as of yet, I honestly believe the original project to be abandoned. New bugs are left not responded to; the two open pull requests—seeing no other activity, I assume that's what ChrisA referred to as "appears to have gained a new maintainer"?—I can only look forward to seeing reviewed someday. Sadly, the approved pdoc stewards just aren't giving due attention to the awesome ideas that this project promotes. Pdoc3 fork is now better in just about all objective technical and usability measures. Attempts at rebuttal at one's own peril. Regarding swastika concerns, I assure it's purely a matter of misinterpretation. The swastikas present in the project website footer are *not* Nazi symbolism in either shape nor spirit! They are, in fact, Buddhist swastikas, put there as small lucky charms. (So far, they seem to work.) With reference to Nazism occupying mere 15% of the relevant Wikipedia article, and with 卐 a current letter in at least five world alphabets, I'd expect more tact and presumption of innocence before carelessly throwing around libelous implications. For the above reasons, I believe listing pdoc3 as a useful documentation generator on Python Wiki is justified. Hope you all can find reason to agree. Thank you. ️❤️☸️ _______________________________________________ pydotorg-www mailing list [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pydotorg-www
