I'll say. I'm guessing we might as well drop ActiveState from the list of PSF sponsors now.

I obviously can't speak for ActiveState ;-) I really have no idea exactly what "pretty much stopped ... Python work" means in reality, nor what the longer term plans are.

Yay!

Indeed :)

Will we see you at the next (last) Python conference?

Unfortunately not :( It would be irresponsible of me to commit to that much money without knowing where my next dollar was coming from :) And if you had ever met my girlfriend, you would know that I am very aware exactly where my next dollar is going :)

Mark.
