Yeah, I was wavering, but now I think I'm -1, too. In particular, I suspect that "pimp" would be far more likely to bother women. There don't seem to be many women on python-dev; perhaps we should ask on c.l.py. OTOH, I disagree with Terry about pimp == rapist, but that's a debate for another forum. -- Aahz (aahz@pythoncraft.com) <*> http://www.pythoncraft.com/ Register for PyCon now! http://www.python.org/pycon/reg.html
