Interesting. That link leads to a discussion of presumed link farmers using Google Translate to translate other people's pages, in exchange for links. So I asked Google Translate to translate Chris Gonnerman's page, http://newcenturycomputers.net/projects/gdmodule.html , and the results were identical (on cursory examination) to the page produced by Gonnerman's correspondent, as reported in the original post. (I won't post that URL here lest I support the farm.) -- To email me, substitute nowhere->spamcop, invalid->net. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
