Re: [Python-Dev] Released fixes for CVE-2008-2315 for Python 2.4?
No - multiprocessing should not go to the official 2.4/2.5 branches. The PEP specified 2.6 and beyond. The fix for 874900 is not a bad idea though.

While not an user of numpy, I feel legitimate to give my feedback as a person with a scientific background. I personally have always felt the lack of a binary operator expressing non-commutative multiplication. It could be used for matrices, but also for functions composition and other more abstract things. I think a single new operator is all is needed.

[Python-Dev] Getting Set Up dev doc
Thanks to the flu that I am getting over I finally got around to start writing the dev docs I have been planning to author for years. The first one is how to get set up, with the draft at http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dg7fctr4_5457424jfh . Obviously any corrections are appreciated. About the only thing I am unsure about with the doc is what the proper separation between this doc and the dev FAQ should be. At this point the FAQ has organically grown to the svn and ssh cheatsheet, which makes me think that I should move all tool-specific info in this doc to the dev FAQ and just reference the specific sections from this doc. But I am somewhat hesitant about doing that as I don't want the FAQ to get overloaded and just become The Dev Doc For Everything. And so everyone knows where I am going with this, I plan to have docs on the life of an issue (with a good chunk dedicated to writing patches), various ways to get involved, and how to get stuff into Python. That should cover all of the basics along with the dev FAQ. Those of you who attended my tutorial on sprinting on the core at PyCon 2008 should recognize how I am breaking the information down in my head. -Brett ___ Python-Dev mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
