Hi,
I read your 'Administrative note' at http://www.pythonware.com/daily/ today

Please don't stop the excellent work that you do.
I don't know what threats and insults you suffered but I would like to
ensure you that I for one read the column and value it.

Thanks, Paddy.

I second the comment "Please don't stop the excellent work that you do."

My daily morning routine is such:
1- open e-mail
2- open Daily News (thanks again)
3- open comp.lang.python
4- open Dilbert...
That and coffee and the day gets on a roll...!

the daily URL won't go away. we'll continue to provide fresh links to
potentially interesting stuff for as long as we possibly can (if you want
old links, use google or gigablast).

and in the future, we'll just redirect abusive posts to /dev/null (and it's
up to us to decide what's abusive). no need to upset our readers just
because we got upset...

thanks /F

The people who would do that (threats and insults) should have their jobs
offshored.

Great! I'm a big fan of the Daily Python URL.

But I wish there was an archive.

Many times I remembered something that I read there
but could not find it again. Regardless of that, thanks
for the excellent work

Istvan.

You are doing an excellent job. 'Daily Python' is the first
thing I read each morning.

Please keep up the great work!

Cheers,
Rich
