Finally, a straight-forward description that is really well explained. As a Java developer getting into python, I've always been frustrated when asking python devs where I am about solid source code structure for python projects that makes sense and won't lead to the apparent mess of what I've seen in lots of python code (they usually just say I'm being too much of an uptight "java" dev... and I should just create a .py file and start "hacking" away).
I certainly apologize on behalf of the Python community for your being treated like that! "Just start hacking" is, I believe, what someone says when they really don't know the answer, and are afraid you're going to find them out.
In my experience, the #python Freenode IRC room isn't like that most of the time. We have frequent conversations about proper Python project structure; most of this article came out of those conversations. Of course, as with any community, it depends on which people you encounter, but I would recommend checking that room out in general.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
