This is an old, incomplete and probably obsolete list that I would
occasionally send out to people who asked.​ Also Rami Chowdhury et al had a
Hackpad / Etherpad that listed more resources. Formerly at
https://pythondc.hackpad.com/ but I don't know if it made the leap to
Dropbox Paper or was archived anywhere, or just disappeared into the
aether.
