In this case, it's python-list or comp.lang.pytho n, because
this is clearly a usage question, not a request or suggestion
for changing the language or its implementation (which is what
python-ideas and pytho-dev are for).
Posting to many groups at once tends to annoy people,
because the readerships of related groups often overlap
considerably, so many people get multiple copies of the
message.
