To all,
About twenty years ago, I was admitted to a Ph.D. program for computer
science.
It was also around that time that I was diagnosed for chronic
depression, which
forced me out of that program into the working word.
I had done my best since then as a software engineer, until late 2005,

Try also Diet Python on SourceForge.
It's the first step toward a shrunken Python for embedded Win32
systems.

Guido,
It has been two years since PyCon 2005.I know I was a pest during
the conference,
and I am very sorry and regret my actions. At the time I had a 104

pneumonia but I was determined to make the presentation for Honeywell,

it killed me. That had greatly affected

I've been doing some hacking of the Python engine, and I've been
looking for

Thanks in advance,

A developer's installation of PSF, including Pywin, WxPython, Numpy,

Otherwise, I'll put up a different percentage.

Diet Python is a flavor of Python with allegro, multiarray, umath,

But I have to admit I enjoy a solidly platonic relationship with
Python. I prefer to
write things in the most beautiful way rather than in the most
efficient. Its cost me a couple jobs, but the integrity of the product

A 6th grader also has intuitions regarding the ownership of an idea.

A fair request. The teaching of legality and ethics of incorporating

My point exactly. A good application of moderate to large size (100K
lines of code) is about as large as a single person can write without
automation, hence it is of an effort comparable in scope and creativity
to a novel.

I believe piracy is bad for everyone: the consumer, the writer, and
the country as a whole. I don't oppose copyleft, but then, I don't
oppose copyright either. Let's distribute the former for free, and
honor the need for the writer of the latter to earn a living.
e I'd like to figure out myself a nice software package to write
and market and earn a good living now that I've walked away from the
rat race, I can also see myself having humanity as my client (the FOSS
model).
