Novell embraces Open Source, but wrapped up in Python? According to this Register article : NetWare 6.5, the latest version of Novell's flagship operating system, will include the MySQL database and Apache Web server, allowing applications designed for these components to run on NetWare. Perl, PHP and Tomcat have also been added to NetWare 6.5, which the company promises will be released in "late May or early June". Once again, has the P in LAMP been Perl and PHP leaving out Python? Somebody Quick! Get a contact over there! Then again, was the Python inclusion in OS X 10.2 a benefit or bane (due to vanilla Unix build) for the multi-platform Python mind-share? 6:54:48 PM    , comment [] Zen of Python: crank it up to 11! "Be kind on Usenet, some posters are only eleven years old." - GvR,  http://www.linuxjournal.com//article.php?sid=6800 I sure hope somebody writes a PEP about this one.  This wordplay is just asking for more: ZoP++,  This is Spinal Tap volume adjustment, ... or tacking it onto a current PEP to garner enough votes Washington style. But please leave out stuff like this superstitious nonesense. 6:24:36 PM    , comment [] Kevin Altis' takes #1 ranking in less than a week! According to today's PyCS Referrer Rankings Kevin Altis' weblog has gained top billing!  This in less than a week after moving to PyCS. Wow. It's like he bought us all a round of Google juice. Cheers! It's through his site that I noticed that not only are we user number free here, but our blog id is sub-domained!  http://sqr.pycs.net == http://pycs.net/sqr .
