Keep an eye on comp.lang.python.announce for the riches that appear there.

    Jim Hugunin exemplifies his commitment to the co-operation
    of [CJ]Python not merely by documenting differences (having
    to do with slices, in the current case), but by putting in
    place mechanisms to encourage others to do the same

    Amos Latteier anticipates release of a pure-Bobo concurrent
    web publishing solution

    Implementation may be brief, but documentation is certainly
    hard.  Without apology to Baudelaire or the other luminaries
    credited with that maxim, Guido van Rossum illustrates its
    constraint of maintenance management
	http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=402816730
    Later in the same thread, he realizes he's created a useful
    idiom for structuring docstrings that feeds into embedding
    XML, POD, and so on
	http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=402832702
    Not content with these advances, the mob relocates itself
    to a long, unexcerptable (that is, worth reading on your
    own) thread rooted by Jeff Blaine's frenzy

    Richard Jones introduces Python CGI to those who natively
    speak Perl
	http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=403757289

    While there are many ways to supply a default value for
    a keyword argument, one is best
	http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=403225906
    See other parts of this thread for generalizations into
    enumerations, kjBuckets, and so on

    Do you know about NumPy's "three-argument forms of the
    binary operators"?  Konrad Hinsen shows their utility in
    reducing memory requirements in extreme situations
	http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=402740141

    Andreas Jung multithreads FastCGI
	http://saarland.sz-sb.de/~ajung/sz_fcgi/

    Tim Peters does surgery on a distant compiler in the dark
    using rusty kitchen utensils.  When the patient gets up
    and walks away in the middle of the procedure, Tim rescues
    the scene with sage counsel on customer support practices.
    While of vanishing value in construction of Python solutions,
    it's rollicking good fun to be a spectator

    Color management seems to be more about data than algorithms
