[Pyre2-devel] will submit a PEP soon

[Chris O. <ot...@ya...>]

Hi Gustavo & Pierre,

I'm about to submit a PEP and was wondering if you guys could look over

it for me.

Apart from the PEP itself I've tried to address some other issues.

One issue is the fact there is so much noise on that python-dev
mailing list that I really can't afford to maintain a subscription
to it.

As you know I set up this pyre2-dev mailing list to try and de-couple 
pyre2 from python-dev.

I sent a message to python-dev asking people to come over and join us 
and the following is a list of email addresses that have since 
subscribed:

  []

I also told them about the wiki.

There have only been two entries on the wiki (apart from Gustavo & I).
The first was some wiki graffiti.
The second was from a guy who had written a parser that he thought did
something similar:

  http://www.dalkescientific.com/Martel/

And the wiki reports it has only been viewed 200 times (and I'm pretty 
sure most of that was from me.)


... Anyway in an attempt to steer python-dev people away from their
mailing list (which I really don't want to have to sift through) and 
towards the wiki (where everything can be stored and monitored eg. -
with RSS feeds) I have attempted to piggy-back a wiki on to the PEP.

Every section in the PEP has a [discuss] link back to a wiki page,
where that section of the PEP can be discussed.

(I did this by hacking the code that generates a PEP from structured
text.)

I'm currently hosting the PEP and the piggy-backed wiki at:

  http://pyre2.sourceforge.net/pep.html


When you look at the "Abstract" section and click on the [discuss] link
you get sent to the Talk:Abstract discussion wiki page.
And when you click on the 'article" tab in the wiki you get
redirected back to the PEP.

I'm not sure how robust this will be, eg. when I change headings, and
currently I have to set up those re-directs by hand.
(Actually I've only bothered to do a redirect for the "Abstract".)

As for the old wiki - I guess I'll try importing it into the new one
at some stage.

Anyway I was wondering if you guys could take a look and tell me what
you think.

A. About the PEP itself
and
B. About decoupling the PEP from python-dev


Cheers.

Chris.
