Thank you very much indeed, Florian. Much appreciated.

Be nice if we could get more python content in this guide. I wonder who
one could ask or inform, to find more volunteers for the python section.

I for one have always wondered about the unicode/ascii/hex conversion
issues for input validation. Maybe some regexpr pitfalls would be nice too.

In fact, the more the merrier.


Any ideas who one could inform ask ?

At the moment it seems there are only the two of you working on this
guide, which I think is a shame. If I had the expertise I would help
out, but as I do not, I am hardly the person to ask for good defensive
coding advice for python related matters. Wish I was.

Regards,

Tristan
