I have sometimes thought that py-dev would be improved by a mechanism for moderation of first-time posts. Spam would be blocked and 'inappropriate' first posts *politely* redirected to clp, the bug list, or the patch list with carefully prewritten messages. On the other hand, I would probably have redirected the ternary op post and missed the surprise of Guido apparently giving serious consideration to an addition. Terry J. Reedy
