PEP-101 says it would be nice to have a dependency graph that showed what could and could not be done in parallel when cutting a release. Should throw one together using OmniGraffle or Graphviz.

birkenfeld commented 14 years ago

I'll probably get around to do this during the 3.2 period.

brettcannon commented 12 years ago

Is this still worth doing, Georg? Or should we make Larry do it? =)

larryhastings commented 12 years ago

Note: I don't have Macs, so I can't run OmniGiraffe. And a quick gander at the Graphviz website suggests its output lacks the sublime elegance Python documentation has become known for.

birkenfeld commented 12 years ago

I think you can make nice graphs with graphviz if you put effort into it :)

brettcannon commented 11 years ago

Would this still be useful to do? Thanks to my latest import talk I have experience with graphviz but I don't want to waste my time if people don't need it.

birkenfeld commented 11 years ago

While it's nice to look at a graphical representation, clearly there is no deep interest (and PEP-101 has so many little steps that you couldn't possibly fit them all into a graph, so you have to consult the text anyway). I see no reason to keep this open.
