Hi,

I wanted to let python-dev know about a series of articles about CPython's internals I'm publishing under the collective title "Guido's Python"* (http://tech.blog.aknin.name/tag/guidos-python/).

A resource that may be useful to you is a 2.5 focused manuscript I put together a few years ago trying to bridge the gap between the library reference and the language reference: http://svn.python.org/projects/sandbox/trunk/userref/

It's obviously a little dated in some areas and doesn't delve as deeply into the source code as you apparently plan to, but hopefully it may prove useful as a resource (I still have vague intentions of exporting that document to ReST markup and updating it to current Python, but that doesn't look like actually happening any time soon)

Cheers, Nick.

P.S. For the record, the relevant URL is now http://tech.blog.aknin.name/tag/pythons-innards/
