There are several commercial distributions (as opposed to implementations) of Python, that may be what Avi has in mind. Some of these are commercial IDEs that include python as part of an integrated bundle - I think Blackadder is one such - and others are just uber distros like Enthought Entropy(?) which is a "supported" distro for scientific work - rather like Anaconda. Others are in the Movie industry where it is either tied to a particular tool or again to a support arrangement. The implementations are the standard open source code but the distribution is paid for, with the value add either in the toolset, the packaging or the support. But maybe Avi means something different... -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
