I think the only question I've ever had has been workflow related. Being a
self-published author, I sometimes struggle with how to create all the
different formats effectively. I still haven't figured out a good way to
streamline adding iBooks to my book formats for example.
I have noticed that pu

What would be those resultant tasks? IIRC it's quite a while since I
saw any emails from this list, so I don't remember what kinds of
emails there may have been, earlie
Maybe we could encouraging some swapping of war stories, under "frieNDA".
I can mention that I have an authoring project on the go - with Alex
Martelli and Anna Ravenscroft I am working on the 3rd Edition of "Python in
a Nutshell." I spent this weekend taking the "What's New in Python 3.6"

I'm working on the third edition of The Quick Python Book, with Manning.
This time around I'll be adding some comprehension check exercises, and
stuff like that.
Right now I don't expect to be done until Q1 of 2017, more because of
various external stuff than anything in the book.

I had a few book ideas and have been doing some writing of bits and
pieces of them, to help me settle on one. Once done, will mention it
here.

Hi Doug,
My experience is that there aren't a huge number of changes tot he standard
library (and no new modules yet). I don't think you will lose a lot of
audience with your decisions.

As far as not-writing work goes, I'm currently the CTO of a fintech
startup, which has severely limited the time I've had for writing. If the
company doesn't succeed there has to be a book in that! S

I'm working on finishing up a wxPython Cookbook that my blog readers have
requested me to do for a number of years. That should be done and published
sometime in November or early December. Then I'll be moving on to one on
mobile applications, assuming I can figure that out in a timely manner.
