Hi! Guido van Rossum: > I think the NIST registry is a failed experiment -- too cumbersome to > maintain or consult. The WEB frontend of the NIST registry is not that bad --- if you are even aware of the fact, that such a beast exists! I use Python since 1994 and discovered the NIST registry incidental a few weeks ago, when I was really looking for something about the Win32 registry and used the search engine on www.python.org. My first thought was: What a neat clever idea! I think this is an example how the Python community suffers from poor advertising of good ideas. > We can do this the same way as common law > handles trade marks: if you have used it as your brand name long > enough, even if you didn't register, someone else cannot grab it away > from you. Okay. But a more formal registry wouldn't hurt. Something like the global module index from the current docs supplemented with all contribution modules which can be currently found a www.vex.net would be a useful resource. Regards, Peter
