You are asking people to provide live help for free, rather than simply reading the documentation. If the help files are too technical for you, you will need to improve your technical ability. (Though the PEPs shouldn't need to concern you, generally.) Live help is a VERY expensive service to offer, because it involves an expert's time dedicated to one single person. Collective help is far more efficient - that's why documentation exists, because it gets read by far more people than wrote it (at least, that's the theory). ChrisA
