Yeah, I saw that one on YouTube. Good talk :)
Actually, I'd like to advertise this even more, e.g. on some of Python upstream
mailing list - on the other hand, I don't want to look like I'm spamming everyone
needlessly... What do you think would be the best place to announce this?
python-announce-list?
You can get away with a lot on python-ideas, and you're likely to find
folks potentially interested in playing around with it there.
Cheers,
Nick.
