That looks pleasantly simple. I don't consider the pydoc.amk.ca experiment to have been really successful. It was a half-hour hack that's usable with some pain, but the JavaScript and frame display needs quite a bit of polishing to be usable by a random newbie. There's a Firefox extension (http://www.wikalong.org/) that allows wiki annotation, but a browser-specific annotation tool doesn't solve the general problem. I suspect the best solution is something Python-doc-specific that runs the generated HTML for the docs through a preprocessor that inserts comments and an editing form. It would be a great topic for a user group sprint or weekend project. (If someone volunteers to do this: if you decide to use an RDBMS, please use PostgreSQL, because it's already installed on one of the python.org servers.) --amk -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
