Hi,
I wanted to let python-dev know about a series of articles about
CPython's internals I'm publishing under the collective title "Guido's
Python"* (http://tech.blog.aknin.name/tag/guidos-python/). Three
articles already were published already, more are planned (mainly
focused on CPython/py3k, but comparisons with other implementations
may also be covered; we'll see). So far I've done an
introduction/whirlwind tour of Py_Main and a two-article in-depth
review of the (new-style) object system.
Whether or not they become part of the Python documentation I have very
much enjoyed and appreciated this series of blog entries. I still covet
the ability to contribute to Python in C and these articles are a great
introduction to the underlying Python interpreter and object system.
Please continue!
All the best,
Michael Foord
I'm sharing this with you (and hope you care) due to three reasons,
probably in escalating importance:
(a) Maybe some of python-dev's readers would be interested (possibly
the newer and more silent members).
(b) Maybe my scales are wrong, but I was a bit surprised by the number
of readers (>20,000 in the past two weeks); I wouldn't want to mislead
such a reader base and would be happy if a veteran here would be
interested in aiding by technically proofing the material (shan't be
too hard I hope, feel free to contact me directly if qualified and
interested).
(c) While the content is currently geared to be blog-oriented, if it's
found worthy by the group I'd be delighted to formulate it into
something more 'reference-material-ish' and give it back to the
community. I found no centrally organized CPython-internals material
other than bits and pieces (descrintro, eclectic blog posts, lectures,
C-API reference, etc), and I hope maybe something like this could be
featured more officially on python.org <http://python.org>, with the
relevant 'this is subject to change' disclaimers (can be a document
for new contributors, for pure Python programmers who're just
interested, or for whatever we decide).
