Wait a minute, i am confused? What language is Python written in? Oh thats right Lisp! I am so dumb. How did i even get this job? :-) > Are you volunteering to maintain both wxPython and wxWidgets in the > standard library for, say, twenty years to come? WxPython needs lots of proper documentation aimed at beginners (so does Tkinter!). WxPython also needs a better API (however only VERY sightly!!). These are some areas where i can be very helpful. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
