Thank you to everyone who has commented on PEP 287, be they in favor, well-meaning but opposed, or ill-wishing troll ;-) [1]_. I have been otherwise busy and haven't been able to keep up with replies, but I have read and kept a record of all the posts so far (and will, for posts yet to come) for consideration and reference when revising the PEP. I may not be able to offer timely replies to all the posts; ultimately the revised PEP will serve as an umbrella reply. .. [1] Actually, the posts opposed and even the trolls are often the most useful, since they point out weaknesses and help strengthen the arguments. The number of people posting *in favor* of the PEP was roughly the same as the number opposed, but supporters tend to be silent while protesters tend to be quite vociferous and relentless. Over the weeks to come, I will be revising PEP 287 and related PEPs 256-258, merging the reStructuredText_ and DPS_ projects into the renamed Docutils_ project, and producing a "road map" describing the big picture. Further suggestions for improvement are welcome. .. _reStructuredText: http://structuredtext.sourceforge.net/ .. _DPS: http://docstring.sourceforge.net/ .. _Docutils: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/ A special thanks must go to Richard Jones for taking up arms (or keyboard) in my stead, and for taking the initiative to start work on `A ReStructuredText Primer`_. In hindsight it was much needed, and it's coming along nicely. Thanks Richard! .. _A ReStructuredText Primer: http://mechanicalcat.net/tech/quickstart.html -- David Goodger goodger@users.sourceforge.net Open-source projects: - Python Docstring Processing System: http://docstring.sourceforge.net - reStructuredText: http://structuredtext.sourceforge.net - The Go Tools Project: http://gotools.sourceforge.net
