Let us know how this weekly digest of Python-related news and references
can best serve you.

    Along with considerable aestheticism, Mike Orr provides a
    table of pertinent documentation formats for consideration
    by those automating Python's manuals

    licensing

    It's not just a better language, it's a way of life.  Michael
    Christopher Vanier and Gordon McMillan explain how prototyping
    with Python is qualitatively distinct from other development
    practices

    Processing command-line arguments is like maintaining your
    crankcase oil:  while you don't get to add it to your resume,
    it's best to do it efficiently and reliably.  The usual
    suspects--Andrew Kuchling, Fredrik Lundh, Ivan Van Laningham,
    and M.-A. Lemburg--illustrate that Python is more than capable
    in this regard

    MagicLight is an ambitious GPLed animation tool with plans for
    ray tracing, radiosity, scanline rendering, and more.  Python
    scripts it
