The thing with comp.lang.python is that it is followed by a large number of Python users, but a much smaller number of the C API users -- which is only natural, since the group is about Python, not about C. For most users the Python/C API is an implementation detail which they never have to worry about. Futrhermore, questions about the C API often concern CPython implementation details and so they don't feel like they would belong in comp.lang.python. As an experiment, it might make sense to open a mailing list dedicated to the Python C API. It could become a useful support forum for extension writers (a group very useful to Python) and maybe even a melting pot for new ideas regarding CPython, much like comp.lang.python historically provided ideas for Python the language. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
