Ditto. The sooner a person redirects a question to python-list, the
sooner I will answer if I have an answer. And I do answer a lot of
questions on Py-list, especially those that have sat a few hours without
an answer.
I think that waiting "a day or two" as suggested by Average does nobody
any good.
The only 'waiting' by anyone should be a few days by someone who posts
on pylist *before* they try here for other expers.
If only the same principal applied on the issue tracker. Anyone fancy
taking on a few orphans, allowing for the fact that you might get told
off for creating noise or for offending devs who don't like being
reminded of outstanding issues? Still, what's nine years to someone
who's waiting for a bug fix?
Kindest regards.
