One thing about the reaction to the 2.1 alphas is that many people seem *surprised* by some of the changes, even though PEPs have been written, discussed, and mentioned in python-dev summaries. Maybe the PEPs and their status need to be given higher visibility; I'd suggest sending a brief note of status changes (new draft PEPs, acceptance, rejection) to comp.lang.python.announce. Also, I'm wondering if it's worth continuing the python-dev summaries, because, while they get a bunch of hits on news sites such as Linux Today and may be good PR, I'm not sure that they actually help Python development. They're supposed to let people offer timely comments on python-dev discussions while it's still early enough to do some good, but that doesn't seem to happen; I don't see python-dev postings that began with something like "The last summary mentioned you were talking about X. I use X a lot, and here's what I think: ...". Is anything much lost if the summaries cease? --amk
