http://docs.python.org/py3k/howto/webservers.html

The path to the interpreter in the shebang (#!/usr/bin/env python) must be currect.


Sorry man there are a great many distractions here.

Some more typos:
"The benefit from this approach is that WSGI applications can be deployed much easier as is is specially designed to host WSGI applications"
s/is is/it is/

"Pylons is much like TurboGears with ab even"
s/ab/an/

Once you finish reading it I'll fix them all at once.

David, can you provide these changes as a unified diff against the subversion trunk?
msg101639 - (view) Author: David W. Lambert (LambertDW) Date: 2010-03-24 15:45
I apologize for the noise.
Yes, I'll read the article carefully and provide changes as a unified
diff against the subversion trunk.

See also #8234 that has a patch with some rephrasing too.
msg101884 - (view) Author: Ezio Melotti (ezio.melotti) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-03-29 03:34
Here is a patch that fixes the typos found by David and Yuv and rephrases a couple of parts.

The rest of the patch seems good to me. Note that “the majority of users is” is as correct as “the majority of users are”, choosing one is a matter of preference.
msg101897 - (view) Author: R. David Murray (r.david.murray) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-03-29 16:42
'is' may be technically correct, however it will sound wrong to a native speaker's ear, at least in America.
msg101903 - (view) Author: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-03-29 20:32
It seems that a lot of non-native speakers (of English) are participating in this thread. By nature, this is something that native speakers should resolve. Unless I'm mistaken (and Ezio actually *does* speak English as a first language), I propose that one of the native speakers provide a patch (perhaps based on Ezio's patch), and that all non-native speakers abstain from commenting on what they believe is English grammar.
msg101912 - (view) Author: Brian Curtin (brian.curtin) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-03-30 02:24
I went through and made a lot of grammar corrections and rewording throughout the file. See attached patch.

I have no idea if this doc is technically correct. I only made grammar changes since I'm not a big web developer, but it could probably use a look from someone who is pretty knowledgeable on the topic.
msg101913 - (view) Author: Éric Araujo (eric.araujo) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-03-30 02:43
I noticed that “a user” is “he” in the current text; gender-neutral 
language may be more in conformity with the recent diversity statement.

Regards
msg101914 - (view) Author: Brian Curtin (brian.curtin) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-03-30 02:48
My first patch removed a lot of the he/him/his wording, but now that you mentioned it found another one. Updated the patch.

There's also an invalid link to an image just after the title "The low-level view":
-.. .. image:: http.png
+.. image:: http.png

The image is not there though, and in r66294 only the document has been added.
msg102053 - (view) Author: Éric Araujo (eric.araujo) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-04-01 01:44
This is a reST comment.
msg102054 - (view) Author: Ezio Melotti (ezio.melotti) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-04-01 01:47
If the image is missing, then the whole line can be removed.
msg102055 - (view) Author: Éric Araujo (eric.araujo) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-04-01 01:49
Is there a main author for this fileN? If so, they can say whether they left the link as a reminder to put the image back later, or if they were just afraid of real version control <0.4 wink>
msg102056 - (view) Author: Ezio Melotti (ezio.melotti) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-04-01 01:52
The author is Marek Kubica, but he doesn't seem to be registered to this tracker.
msg102287 - (view) Author: R. David Murray (r.david.murray) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-04-03 17:38
I do know something about web development, so I did a more extensive edit.  I'm not saying I've brought it completely up to date or fixed any inaccuracies, but I did change the tone here and there, tightened up a bunch of the language, clarified a few things, and updated a few statements.
msg102362 - (view) Author: Ezio Melotti (ezio.melotti) * (Python committer) Date: 2010-04-05 04:07
Fixed in r79781 (trunk), r79782 (release26-maint), r79783 (py3k) and r79784 (release31-maint).
Thanks to all!
