I think the python software foundation might be a good place to start. Pyjs is python-related, after all. The PSF is a smaller, and possibly more friendly group. I haven't dealt with them officially, but I was at the python conferences when it got started - they are very approachable people.
I think it would be worthwhile contacting them first for advice. Let them know what our project is about, what our history has been, and where we are trying to go. It may not be time, yet, for us to get foundation endorsement. But the PSF (or an individual from the PSF) could probably provide mentoring on what our next steps could be. -- Jeff On May 9, 2012 2:06 AM, "Kees Bos" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > > At the moment the project doesn't have much credibility.
