Any recommendations for projects which provide good models? (I get that it would be best to read code in an application area that interests me, but I also think my request to be harder to accommodate if I pile on conditions ;-)

Orbitz mentioned the Quotient project, which I'm not familiar with at all. It sounds interesting, though! http://www.divmod.org/Home/Projects/Quotient/ The 'Twisted' network framework itself is getting some really high praise from folks here; it might be interesting to look into that. I dunno; do you have a particular application area that interests you? (Personally, I'm planning to look into Chandler: http://www.osafoundation.org/ but that's partially because I'm always losing track of information; a PIM would probably help me. grin)

Hi all,

thanks for the suggestions, Danny.

Chandler interest me a lot -- the personal itch I'd like to program a scratch for is PIM-related. (I've made a start, but I'm quite a while from feeling I've anything to speak of.)

But Chandler seems to gigantic for a first real 'code read'. Also, when I downloaded 0.2, it seemed like a lot of MB little (obvious to the user) functionality. Something closer to a working product seems a better idea.

FWIW I've seen (in the sense of 'read the web page') a couple of other Python PIM's:

Thanks again,
