More the former. If it's about Python, it's probably okay. But we're
not ogres... if you do something "wrong" or post something
"off-topic", we won't eat you :) Best way to get an idea of the
character of a list is to read the archive:

http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/

Or lurk for a while, then dive in when the fit grabs you, that's what
most of us do :)
