Re: [Python-Dev] [Python-checkins] cpython: Add a few entries to whatsnew/3.3.rst.
Ezio Melotti, 26.09.2012 18:30: The problem is that the standard allows some charref to end without a ';', but not all of them. So both Eacuteric and Eacute;ric will be parsed as Éric, but only alpha;centauri will result in αcentauri -- alphacentauri will be returned unchanged. To preserve this I included them both, in the same way they are listed at http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/named-character-references.html. Interesting. Seems to be missing on dailywtf, though. Maybe just an oversight.

[Python-Dev] Python Bug Day in October
Hi all, The Montreal-Python user group would like to host a bug day on October 27 (to be confirmed) at a partner university in Montreal. It would be cool to do a bug day on IRC like we used to (and in other physical locations if people want to!) to get new contributors and close bugs. What do you think?

Sounds good to me, and I'll see if I can get some interest in having a meetup in Chicago. Would be nice to try and get all of the implementations to join in. Whenever a final date is picked out, I'll write something up and publicize it on the PSF blog, dev blog, pythonsprints.com, etc. ___ 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

Just because someone proposed it on a mailing-list doesn't mean it is endorsed by python-dev. We discussed about this with Vinay, Nick and al on python-dev, based on Nick's document that describes what 'distlib' is. The document has changed since then, http://python-notes.boredomandlaziness.org/en/latest/pep_ideas/core_packaging_api.html But the idea was to create a subset of 4 or 5 modules that implement the various PEPs. Vinay started to work on this and made progress. When I said endorsed, I mean that most of the people in python-dev that care about packaging agreed or did not disagree. Now, if you disagree please say it. Or if you need an official decision, we need to first declare who is the current packaging BDFL maybe ? And since you seem interested in the topic maybe you could take that role ?

All that is needed for an IRC bug day to happen is for someone to coordinate and advertise it. It sounds like you and Brian between you have that covered. Of course, it does help to have committers on hand. I think I for one will probably be available during the day (EST) on the 27th. --David ___ 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

We need something like that in order to allow import hooks to correctly supply distribution metadata). The original email thread from the removal of packaging from 3.3 is probably a better point of reference, with a concrete distlib PEP still on the todo list.
