You misunderstood me. I meant that if for some reason you would be refused a subscription you should complain publicly. Apart from that correction of a misunderstanding, I don't think we need to go back and forth more on this. The folks taking the initiative on the mentorship list have a certain kind of environment in mind, they've heard your objection, they are going ahead with the policy they set. Let's see how the experiment goes. We can always create a new public list later (though we cannot open the archives of the original closed list). -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido) _______________________________________________ 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
