Are you sure these are all the same? I can't check from here (on my mobile, poor reception) but the URLs look significantly different. This one is a slide deck, one of the ones you quote is a video.
Added in edit:
It does look like this one - http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4651882 - really is a duplicate, but it got no votes and no comments, so perhaps a repost is in order.
Re: Python for Humans
#4Wow, this is cool. Kenneth has started to identify and call out other libraries that are "barriers to entry" in Python. If this is a call to arms to scale the Requests experience, it could grow into something really powerful - a movement to systematically reinvent and rejuvenate the Python standard library.

#5Slightly off topic: in an effort to become a better programmer, and to improve the Python ecosystem, I've tried to write a "for Humans" style logging library. Would anyone mind giving me feedback?

It was reposted today because he gave the talk again this morning at Pycon Canada, I suspect.
Re: Python for Humans
#7I was at his talk this morning at pycon canada. It was a very good talk, the highlight of the conference. I like his approach, although I think it'll be a challenge to get there since not everyone has his "visionary" and api building skills, but someone has to start somewhere. Well done.

Yep. I was looking for exactly this list.
Incidentally Python could use an more equivalent to djangopackages.com to help in identifying popular alternatives to standard lib packages.

While not a table of "stdlib package => 3rd party package", there is this: http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest

Looks great. Can't get to testing it today but I will get back to you soon.
