[Python-Dev] Re: Thanks for the Dev Guide

2020-11-26 Thread Brett Cannon
The first versions of the devguide and the CLA bot are me, but tons of
people have helped out over the years with both of these things and our dev
process overall who share in the thanks. šŸ˜Š

And glad the process went well for you, Richard!

The dev guide is a community project, like all of Python.Ā  But IIRC the 
person who drove it and did I think most of the heavy lifting on it was 
Brett Cannon.


And yes, it /is/ excellent, isn't it :D

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to express some appreciation for the excellent Dev Guide.

I don't use git or github much, but the dev guide got me from not 
knowing where to start, to having a PR out for review in a couple 
hours. It walked me through...pretty much perfectly.


Getting a CLA signed was also simple and nice. When the bot brought 
that up, I thought it'd be a headache big enough to keep the PR from 
everĀ getting back to the top of my todo list. But the help text and 
links from the bot, the integration of BPO with Google sign in, 
linking BPO to a github name, digitally signing the CLA, the little 
heroku thing -- all just self serve, and easy, and obvious, and really 
just didn't get in the way.


I don't know which person(s) are the best to thank for all that, but 
thanks for making it easy for a newbie to get started and contribute.
