Getting a Grip on Google Code

netbuzz writes "Niall Kennedy reports on his blog that Guido van Rossum, author of the Python programming language, has begun showing off his first project since joining Google last year. 'Mondrian is a Web-based code-review system built on top of a Perforce and BigTable backend with a Python-powered front-end,' Kennedy writes. 'Mondrian is a pretty impressive system and is currently in use across Google.' Kennedy's description of Google's current code-review system sure makes it sound like it was in need of an upgrade. 'The Mondrian tool creates a much better workflow by creating task-specific dashboards, in-line commenting, well-tracked statistics, and more,' he writes. 'The application is built on top of Python open source libraries such as the Django framework, smtpd.py mail service, and the wsgiref Web server software.'"

    Try giving a deep, suculent "yard of tongue down your throat" soul kiss to the suspected troll. Watch in the closet door mirror: If their spine lights up IT'S A CYLON! FOR GOD'S SAKE RUN! Otherwise it's probably a troll.

    If you want to go ahead and have sex with the Cylon before you run, that's your business.
