Why, I'm so surprised! It's right here!

By boss yesterday proposed I start this Temple of the Snake; I've been
evangelizing the use of Python here at work. He proposed a virtual snake
temple, where people who have sinned can go for confession, for instance
those developing using Perl or Frontpage. In the first case a "promise
to improve yourself" would be enough, but in the second case we'd need
to drive out the demon (low level format, linux therapy).
I asked him if I could use web space for that here. :)

But I'm completely, utterly innocent-- okay, I give up. Martijn, he
knows too much. Let's power up the spare time machine and alter history
around a little.

Too late now! Muhahahah! :)

Okay, I'll go read it and add a link. Another option would be me giving
you Zope management access to a folder at zdp.zope.org, so you could put
it there. Would that be interesting/useful to you?
