I'm aware that the high horse I get on about this is so tall that you'll need an oxygen supply to survive should you want to sit on it, but to me this is easily the worst aspect of the Python community as a whole. If every regular contributor to this list was to fix even one bug a week the figures would look rather better. Still, you can no more enforce that than you can enforce the core devs working on Python 2.8 :) Talking of which, have we got a PEP for that yet, or are the whingers still simply in whinging mode? -- My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask what you can do for our language.
