See also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AprilFools%27DayRFC -- it has a ton of these. Great fun reading through some of them on an idle Saturday afternoon. :-) There were a lot of Python jokes for the Apr 1st. What a pity we have ceased to make such jokes. You forget the April 1st PEPs: http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0313/ http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3117/ Not to mention the April 1 Licensing blog entry:
