I didn't say that I wanted to reinvent the wheel of javascript libraries. What I was proposing was creating a mailing list and web site focused on advanced javascript techniques (with no libraries. I have said before that I don't think JS libraries really work). My main goal would be to have more discussions like the one we are having now, except with a wider community than the Python community. Martijn, if codespeak would like to host a forum for these discussions, keeping in mind the goal is not to produce a JS library, that would be nice. I can also host it myself with no trouble. I'll look into how much work it would be to host it myself -- I might as well put my money where my mouth is :-) Donovan _______________________________________________ Web-SIG mailing list Web-SIG@python.org Web SIG: http://www.python.org/sigs/web-sig Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/web-sig/archive%40mail-archive.com
