FYI I just finished (I hope!) to bug on os.walk(bytes) on Windows with
the "emulated" scandir (since os.scandir() only works on Unicode on
Python 3.5+):
http://bugs.python.org/issue25911

Since I helped you to write your PEP 471 (scandir) as the
BDFL-delegate, I think that I now understand well scandir(). So I can
help you to maintain your backport.

Thanks, Ethan. I don't think that would be too much of an issue -- there is
only a small amount of OS X-specific code in scandir.py.

I also see Victor Stinner's just replied. I think he would make the ideal
maintainer if he's willing, as he helped me write the PEP and code and has
been very close to scandir for a long time.

Indeed -- probably better than me at this point! I haven't quite been able
to keep up with the latest CPython patches. In any case, I think you'd be
an ideal person for maintaining the backport. I know there was some
question in the past about whether you had desire/time for more open source
contributions; in that light, are you willing and do you have the time?
Though again, this isn't a big module and really just a few fixes at this
point.

Re: [Python-Dev] Scandir module seeking new maintainer

2016-03-29 Thread Ben Hoyt 
Victor Stinner has agreed to take over maintenance of the backport module
-- thanks Victor! His plan is straightforward -- to backport enhancements
from CPython 3.6 and release a new PyPI version.

And thanks Ethan for volunteering as well -- I appreciate it.

[Python-Dev] Not receiving bug tracker emails

2016-03-29 Thread Martin Panter 
For the last ~36 hours I have stopped receiving emails for messages
posted in the bug tracker. Is anyone else having this problem? Has
anything changed recently?

I have had it set to send to my gmail.com address since the beginning.
At the moment the last bug message email is
 with “Date: Mon, 28 Mar
2016 12:19:49 +”. I have checked spam and they are not going
there.

Earlier this year I had to set up a rule to avoid lots of tracker
emails suddenly going to spam. I suspect there was something about the
emails that Google doesn’t like (though I don’t understand the
technical details). Maybe this has recently gotten worse at the Google
end?

I just got an email from b.p.o so it's working at least in general.

Same for me.

This is very sad, because some comments can be unnoticed and some 
patches can be unreviewed.
