The third alpha version of Python 2.7 is ready for testing:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/t/6f49dacfe8759508/
How to enumerate all possible strings matching a given regular expression:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/t/1b78346c6661ac4f/
Which language features do you like most?
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/t/599b3c9772421ece/
Implementing a two-dimensional array in a simple way seems to actually
be more efficient than other, more sophisticated alternatives:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/t/55e595d6dc4ca3f4/
The new GIL (to be implemented in Python 3.2) will provide less overhead,
especially in multicore CPUs:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/t/586ef2d3685fa7ea/
In Python 3, 'exec' inside a function does not have the same effect
as before:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/t/7a046e4ede9c310a/
Using Queue objects to feed and synchronize several worker threads:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/t/32256dd608c9c02/
New generation IDEs should provide much better and integrated
refactoring tools:
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/t/e019614ea149e7bd/
There is no module in the standard library to handle filesystem paths
in an OO way - but why?
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.pythonf580fb3763208425ece/
A "History Channel" special: how the way a TAB key was interpreted
changed over time
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.python82d9181fcd31ffea3f4/
After a false start, finally we get our first "Is it Call-By-Value or
Call-By-Reference?" thread of the year!
