Well, I think the situation is pretty good now.
I agree, but improvement is always possible.
If one goes to python.org and is interested in contributing, clicking on the "Core Development" link is a sensible step, right?
Maybe. But a lot of the "Core Dev" links I've seen are maintained by and for incumbent core devs, and are somewhat intimidating for new users and developers.
How about moving the About | Getting Started link to the top level and giving it a set of links like
- Standalone Scripting
- Extending Apps Using Python as Extension Language
- Developing Apps in Python (this is what I think of when I read the current Getting Started with Python page, FWIW YMMV)
- Developing Library Modules to Extend Python
- Developing Python (there's work you can do, too!)
This is similar to the existing About | Getting Started page, but more accessible (in the sense of being an index, rather than a more verbose description containing scattered links). I think most of them can go to existing pages.
