Fair enough, but advocacy isn't at all what I'm after. Anecdotes are fine, after all what is data but a collection of anecdotes? :) Seriously, anecdotes are valuable: they give you another perspective, reflect common wisdom, and can tell you what/where/how to look for hard data. Of course if anyone already has hard data that would be welcome too, but it's hard to even pin down what 'hard data' means in this situation. I'll grant you though, asking for non-value-judgement-laden anecdotes on newsgroups may be asking too much. -- Edward Elliott UC Berkeley School of Law (Boalt Hall) complangpython at eddeye dot net -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
