Ah yes i have often wondered who could it be? I have a few good suspects who could be Guido's sock-puppets. Although i don't know Guido's personality enough to pick him out of the crowd. If it were you i would be happy! Some of the other suspects are quite annoying, but their knowledge level and self righteousness seem to be so overwhelming. So finding out that they are Guido would be a disappointment. But again i don't know Guido so it would be hard for me to say...? """ The White Wizard is cunning. He walks here and there they say, as an old man, hooded and cloaked... And everywhere his spies slip past our nets!""" However i have also considered that maybe *all* the "well knowns" are in fact the many colorful personalities of Guido. * When he's in the mood for fire breathing debate and cunning undermining he fires up the SD'A account. * When he's feeling vindictive he drops one-line poop bombs from Alex23. * if someone announces a new module without documenting it he fires off troll feeds from mensenator. * When he's feeling nice he uses Chris Rebert. * If he feeling like spreading propaganda he fires up the George Sakkis or Bruno Desthuilliers. * If he wants to feel stately he masquerades as Steve Holden (although lately we've seen the grumpy side of this personality). * And last but not least when he feels like trolling on a grandiose scale he posts to c.l.lisp, c.p.ruby, and c.l.python, and five other sites as xah lee. Heck i may be the only non-Guido "regular" here! ;-) PS: Sorry if i left anyone out. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
