In the previous article from this series, I described how to access a POP3 server with a Python script. While POP is a useful protocol for connecting to legacy servers and gaining a basic understanding of how email works, IMAP is the workhorse protocol for email today. IMAP is designed for users to store their email remotely on the server, rather than locally on their own server. It also allows for users to create a folder system in their inbox to organize and move messages around the mailbox. This all makes IMAP a much more complicated protocol than POP, which in turn translates to a more complicated library in Python.
Much of the IMAP library in Python is very closely tied to the actual IMAP protocol definition in RFC 2060. When you are working with this library, both the Python docs and that RFC are necessary references, as very often arguments to functions will need to be formatted as this RFC states, and responses will be returned in the format defined by that RFC.
Connecting to the Server
Again, the first task you'll need to accomplish when working with an IMAP server is creating the IMAP object to communicate with the server:
from imaplib import *
server = IMAP4("test.com")
The objects necessary to work with IMAP servers are held in the "imaplib" library so it must be imported first. The library itself also contains a few other useful objects. First of all, there are two exception classes, "error" and "abort." The "error" exception generally denotes some sort of failure on the client's part, and the reason for that error is passed along with the exception. The "abort" exception usually results from some server-side error, and the connection must usually be reset to recover from this error. In addition, "imaplib" also contains several functions that can come in handy, for converting dates into the format used by IMAP and for parsing some IMAP server responses.
{mospagebreak title=Authentication}
Once you have successfully connected to the server, you need to log in to do anything useful. The function to do this is called "login," and it takes two arguments, the username and password. Once you have logged in, you have several choices as to what you want to do. Since IMAP organizes mail into various "mailboxes" (which are basically folders), you can move to another mailbox, create or delete a mailbox, and fetch various parts of messages.
server.login("test", "testpass")
mboxes = server.list()[1]
server.create("Old Mail")
r = server.select("Old Mail")
The above code logs in to the mail server and then does some work with mailboxes. The second line gets a list of mailboxes from the server. This response gives you a Python list data structure of the server's responses to the "list" request. As with the POP3 library, the first element of these returned results is the server's "response," which lets you know if the command completed successfully; since we are interested primarily in the data from this function, we strip the first element away.
The "list" function returns a list of strings. Each of these strings has three elements. The first part of the string contains the mailbox attributes flag. This gives you some basic information about the mailbox, such as whether the server thinks it's interesting or not. The next element is where this mailbox lives, basically its parent directory. This is useful when setting up a nested folder system on the email server, as you must supply the full path to a new mailbox in order to create it within another mailbox.
Finally, the last element is the folder name itself. If you want to find out how many messages there are in a mailbox, you must then select that mailbox. The server will return the result of the operation as well as the number of messages in the mailbox. It is important to know that you must select some mailbox before you can do any actual searching or fetching of messages. By default, the "select" function selects the "Inbox," but it must be called before anything else can be done with individual messages.
{mospagebreak title=Searching for Messages}
Once you have connected and entered the correct mailbox, you will want to search for specific messages. You can do this by downloading the pertinent information for all messages in the mailbox, and then processing all of that data locally. However, that is typically not necessary. IMAP defines a very useful search function that allows the server to do this for you. This is important for several obvious reasons. First of all, it greatly reduces the amount of network traffic sent, thus speeding up your program. It also reduces the amount of logic you have to code directly into your system.
There are many available attributes for you to search on. For instance, you can search for only new messages, messages of a certain size, messages that are from a particular person or email address, or messages that contain a specific string in the body. In general, all of the search criteria are strung together with ANDs, but it is possible to use the prefix operator OR to make an "or" condition. Some examples look like:
r, data = server.search(None, "(FROM "fred")")
r, data = server.search(None, "(SMALLER 20000)")
r, data = server.search(None, "(NEW)")
r, data = server.search(None, "(OR NEW SMALLER 20000)")
These examples should be relatively obvious. The first searches for all messages that have "fred" in the "FROM" header. The second searches for all messages smaller than 20kb (imaplib uses raw bit octets, so multiplying by 1000 is necessary), and the third searches for all messages that have not been viewed yet. Finally, the last searches for all messages that are either new or smaller than 20kb.
Notice that the "OR" operator is a prefix, and must be put before the two search keys that are being operated on; this is also the case for the "NOT" operator. Another thing to note in this example is the strategy of putting a tuple on the left side of the equals sign, thus allowing you to break the return value immediately into the response part and the data part. This is somewhat different from the response processing shown above, but allows you to easily grab both the response and data.
The data portion of the returned information contains a list of the message sequence numbers that satisfy the search criteria. In all of the above statements, the first argument is something called a "charset" argument. It defines the sort of encoding that the messages should have. Usually, this is used for defining different character encoding standards to deal with different languages' alphabets. Here, we use the "None" arguments for simplicity, assuming that all messages use the same English encoding.
{mospagebreak title=Fetching Message Information}
Getting message information from the server is the most common task with IMAP, and it is also one of the more complicated ones. To get various parts of a message or information about a message, you use the "fetch" method. However, what makes this somewhat confusing is that the programmer must supply the actual IMAP protocol arguments to the "fetch" method, similar to "search." That is, the programmer must create a string of arguments that get sent verbatim to the server as the actual arguments for that command.
This means that we have now left the sole realm of Python and now are dealing with the actual networking protocol as well, and the structure of the messages sent over the network. Luckily, these arguments can usually be seen as a relatively simple string list of objects or data that the server can return. Some of these arguments have nested sub-arguments, but these are all handled singly, which adds to the complexity.
The "fetch" command takes two arguments, one defining the group of messages to be retrieved and another describing what parts of the messages should be retrieved. The first argument should be a list of message sequence numbers, not UIDs. It is possible to use UIDs, but that requires the use of another command, the "uid" command, which notifies the sever to process the following command using UIDs rather than message sequence numbers.
The first argument can be either an inclusive list giving just the first and last sequence numbers separated by a ":" or it can simply be a comma separated string listing each number. This means that you can take the list from a "search" query, simply replace the spaces in the data string with commas, and use it as an argument to "fetch." While this may not be the most size efficient practice, it is often much simpler than compressing the list down to ranges of sequence numbers.
The second argument is a string that lists what information you want from the server. There are many different choices here, and the full listing is found in section 6.4.5 of RFC 2060. However, some important ones are:
- RFC822 – Grabs entire message, useful for importing into the Python email parser.
- UID – Gets the UID, which is the best way to identify messages across different connection contexts.
- BODY[<part>] – This is the main workhorse. By replacing the "<part>" section, you can access the main text body of a message, attachments, and headers.
- INTERNALDATE – Useful for getting the date the message was received.
- FLAGS – This gives you the server's own metadata about the message, like whether it's been seen yet, or whether it is marked for deletion.
- ENVELOPE – This is a quick way to get all of the default RFC822 fields for a particular message parsed into a list of strings of text.
Some examples are useful in these cases:
r, data = server.fetch('6', '(UID BODY[TEXT])')
r, data = server.fetch('6', '(UID ENVELOPE)')
r, data = server.fetch('2:5', '(BODY[HEADER.FIELDS (SUBJECT FROM)])
These lines do variously simple or complex things. The first line gets the UID and the body text of message number 6. The second line grabs the envelope and UID for message 6, and the third line gets the newline-delimited Subject and From header fields for messages 2 through 5. The returned data is structured differently depending upon how you requested it; however, it is far easier to look through the returned information and learn it directly than to describe it in words. Suffice it to say that the returned information is a nested set of lists.
Overall, the most powerful abilities of IMAP lie in the capability to create virtual file systems on the remote server and the ability to filter messages before actually downloading their data. The searching capability is priceless when writing an automated utility for email, allowing you to quickly filter down the data. IMAP is a complex but very useful protocol. Before working with the Python libraries, make sure you are well versed in the protocol definition itself, as this will smooth the road when learning how to interact with the server in Python.

The Greenville music scene has both veterans and newcomers, but few bands have as lengthy a history as Zataban.
The Greenville music scene has both veterans and newcomers, but few bands have as lengthy a history as Zataban.
The band features keyboardist Patrick Purnell, who has been making music in the Upstate since 1990, mostly with Zataban guitarist Kym MacKinnon.
The group's rhythm section is composed of bassist Frank Wilkie, most notably of Garfeel Ruff and the Marshall Tucker Band, and Tez Sherard, who does double duty as the drummer for the Gypsy Souls, which also includes Wilkie and MacKinnon.
Between the four of them, Purnell reckons that they've played in "dozens of bands." But it was a love of blues and some fortunate circumstances that brought them together.
In the early 1990s, Purnell began playing with MacKinnon, who had been a member of the Electric City Blues band.
"Back when I first moved to Greenville, I met Kym, and we've been playing in bands ever since," Purnell says.
"And in 2002, our bass player died of cancer. We tried to keep the band together, but we really weren't doing much of anything.
"And then Kym met Frank Wilkie and started playing guitar for the Gypsy Souls, which also had Tez on drums. And I believe really the way it started was they asked me to sit in with them."
Purnell says that initial, one-night appearance sparked a conversation that fueled a whole new project.
"We talked among ourselves and decided that what we really wanted to do was something that was more blues-oriented," Purnell says. "Kym and I, our background was in blues music, so this project was really designed to be more focused on the blues. And it needed to be special for all of us, because we've all played in a lot of bands."
Zataban combines the electric blues of '60s giants such as Mike Bloomfield and the heavy-but-jazzy influence of the Marshall Tucker Band, but they're much more concise and gritty than their musical relatives, the Gypsy Souls. Zataban also doesn't play the usual grueling local-band schedule, and that's by design, luck and circumstance.
"Age is probably a factor," Purnell says with a laugh. "We're probably less willing to play in certain situations than if we were younger; let's put it that way. But also, there are a limited number of rooms available to play in unless you're willing to travel.
"It's not the same music business as it was 20 years ago. There aren't as many places to play. We got into it when there were a lot of clubs in a lot of towns that were featuring live music. It seems like there are less of those now."
But Zataban is also able to write and record music as opposed to constant gigging because of a special connection.
"We're able to satisfy ourselves because we have access to a recording studio, and that's where we spend a lot of our time," Purnell says.
"Buddy Strong at Southeastern Sound (in Easley) has been a real friend to the band and especially Frank, going back to the Marshall Tucker Band.
"We spend more time in the studio than a lot of bands because that's what we had in mind. We play live, but our goal is to satisfy ourselves musically.
"Only now are we at the point where we've started including original music, and that was the goal. We're in the studio now, doing only tunes that we've written ourselves."

Pep Guardiola has hailed Johan Cruyff's role in Barcelona's successes in recent years, saying the Catalans would not have been at their current level were it not for the Dutchman.
The future Bayern Munich coach won 14 trophies during his four-year spell in charge of the Blaugrana before taking a one-year sabbatical, but Guardiola has stressed that the Netherlands icon is the main man behind the club's return to the top.
"Cruyff is the one who started it all. He has been the club's most influential figure," Guardiola was quoted as saying by El Tiempo.
"We all have the ability to do certain things, but I would not have been able to build something from scratch like Cruyff did.
"I learned a lot of things from him. I cannot imagine the current Barcelona without Cruyff's work 20 years ago. Everybody who came after him added a personal touch, but I will be eternally grateful to him."
Cruyff enjoyed a successful spell at Barca as player from 1973 until 1978 before returning as coach in 1988 for eight years.
The legendary Dutchman is by many seen as one of the key figures behind the club's La Masia youth academy.

Historic Structures - Doctor's Office
Doctor's Office
Date: 1820
Origin: Westford, Otsego County, NY
Builder: Drake, John, M.D.
Original owner: Sloan, Dr. George A./Drake, Dr. John/Jackson, Dr. Elan W./Jackson, Dr. John
Info: The Doctor's Office is a two-room wood-framed Greek Revival building. It served as office space for 4 different doctors from the 1820s until 1912. The first two doctors to use the building were the brothers Dr. John Jackson and Dr. Elhanan W. Jackson. Dr. John Drake gained sole use of the building and relocated it around 1856. Dr. Drake died in 1877 and left the building to Dr. George A. Sloan.
The doctors that used this office would have practiced mainly outside of the office, visiting patients wherever medical care was needed. Therefore the office was used primarily for preparing drugs, record keeping, storing medical equipment and occasionally treating patients.
Provenance: The Farmers' Museum acquired the building from Mr. and Mrs. F. Grant Tyler, Westford, NY in 1950.
*F. Grant Tyler bought the property from C. J. Snyder, Thomas H. Haggerty and Ira D. Tiffle as Trustees of Westford Ten 808 Knights of the Maccabees of the World on March 22, 1910 for Consideration of $300 and a mortgage payment of $1000.
*Trustees of Westford Ten 808 Knights of the Maccabees of the World bought the property from Waldo H. and Ella Marr Tyler on February 27, 1905 for Consideration of $1.
*Waldo H. Tyler bought the property from Sarah E. Bidlake on July 1, 1881 for $1050.
*Sarah E. Bidlake bought the property from H. B. and Jane Gilbert on January 15, 1878 for $2500.
*Horace Gilbert bought the property from Daniel S. Bidlake on December 30, 1875 for $2500.
(the office was most likely moved around this time)
*Daniel Bidlake bought the property from James F. and Calphurina French on March 25, 1852 for $700.
*Calphurina French bought the property from Elisha R. Treat on April 2, 1849 for $200.

I would say it's both because they are both the same thing, not separate things. Ignorance about 5 aggregates causes clinging, clinging to 5 aggregates causes afflictions, with knowledge of things as really are, ignorance is removed thereby simultaneously destroying afflictions because without ignorance there can be no clinging.tiltbillings did not wrote: an object of knowledge which is the goal, or is it sheer destruction of afflictions"?
To what extent do you see the path in terms of gnosis?
Or something like that.

By Marc Livitz: The masses at the StubHub Center in Carson, California may have been there to see Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr. score a victory this evening, yet even they didn't expect it to happen the way it eventually did. Chavez, Jr. improved to (47-1-1, 32 KO's) with a very questionable unanimous decision win over Brian Vera (26-7, 14 KO's). Chavez made his first appearance in just over a year since his memorable twelve round decision loss to Sergio Martinez on September 15, 2012. By contrast, Vera took part in his fourth fight in just over a year's time and brought a winning streak equal in number into the ring.There had been much drama over various negotiated weights in the weeks and days coming into the bout. The agreed upon poundage limit of 168, which had been changed from a lower amount (162) eventually made its way all the way to 173. Additionally, the date of the fight was moved from September 7 due to a cut sustained in training by Chavez. Some saw this "cut" as more of a scratch and a cover up for the weight issues. Julio, Jr. of course has made a questionable reputation of himself with at times brash accusations of laziness and lack of motivation. He made it just under the bar yesterday at the weigh in. His father, Mexican legend Julio, Sr. was in his corner instead of world class instructor, Freddie Roach. The legendary trainer decided to leave the Chavez camp.In round one, Vera tried to establish his left jab. Chavez, Jr. at times returned the favor. Brian landed a few shots inside the first minute. Halfway through the round, Julio landed a solid left hook to the head, which brought a smile out of Vera. The grins continued as the period came to a close. "The Warrior" Vera (Austin, TX.) took the action to Chavez, Jr. (Culiacan, Jalisco, MX) in the opening seconds of round two. A left hook from Julio settled matters. He looked visibly larger than his central Texas opponent. Vera continued to use his left jab. He tried at times to follow with the right. Chavez, Jr. had also began to show more of his arsenal. Vera connected with a double jab in the third. Julio was consistently looking to set up his power right. The two men traded shots near the middle of the ring as the round closed. Chavez connected with a right hook near the end. Into the fourth, the situation seemed to be Brian was doing more, yet Julio was landing the harder shots. Chavez had developed a mouse under his right eye. Julio was connecting, but Brian refused to budge. Going into round five, the pressing question would perhaps have been whether or not quantity trumped quality.In the fifth, the two combatants traded more shots. Julio complained of a headbutt and low blows with about a minute to spare. He landed a hard right but Vera kept coming forward. The bout which was rescheduled for ten rounds now was halfway in the bag. Chavez connected with a straight right to Vera's chin inside the first minute of the sixth. This one really got his attention. Still, Brian kept on walking. His opponent was moving from the head to the body with single shots. The seemingly pro-Chavez crowd picked their cheering carefully. Going into round seven, Vera's trainer, Ronnie Shields pleaded with his man to not test his machismo and to fight smarter.Julio seemed to slow down a bit in the seventh, although he did open the stanza with a few hard shots to the head. Vera continued to move forward, which allowed Chavez to tag him flush to the face towards the dying seconds. Vera connected with a quick head and body combination to begin the eighth. Chavez was still landing, yet his shots were of the "one punch at a time" variety. Both men appeared somewhat fatigued with two rounds to spare.
The two clashed heads right inside the ninth round. As he complained to referee Lou Moret, Brian Vera went on the attack. He connected with a few head shots, yet Chavez remained perfectly vertical. The action was continuing at a flurried pace. Brian seemed to know he needed to keep the punches flying. He had one round to decisively prove his point. His conditioning seemed to tell the tale. So many had Vera knocked out and gone by this point. Onto the tenth they went.Left after left was what Vera threw at Julio to begin round ten. Chavez, Jr. was still firing back. He hit back with body shots and kept going for the one punch to end the bout. Brian continued to smile at his foe. Julio had him on the ropes towards the end of the round and Vera smartly tied him up. The bell sounded and Vera celebrated in his corner, all of whom seemed to know the bout was his. However, the decision would be left to the three ringside judges. Their scores were as follows: Gwen Adair: 98-92, Carla Caiz: 96-94and finally Marty Denkin: 97-93. Brian Vera was the victor in the eyes of many in attendance, yet it was the son of the legend, Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr. who would take the win back to his native Mexico.

Governor Terry Branstad has proclaimed this week as Soil and Water Conservation Week noting the important work that has been done taking care of the air, soil and water in Iowa.
Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey says this week provides a great opportunity to recognize all that has been done through efforts to stop soil erosion, and protect the water quality in the state. He adds this year marks the 72nd anniversary of the law that started the statewide conservation efforts.
Washington County is working with the USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service, the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, and Iowa State University to fulfill the conservation's mission.
This week realizes that our abundance in our agriculture products and the quality of life we enjoy depend upon the proper use and management of soil and water resources. Soil and Water Conservation Week started Sunday and ends on Saturday.

Adrienne's Carnivale Inspired Outdoor Space
Last month Apartment Therapy contributors got to post about our ideal live/work studios, and I put together something eclectic and earthy. When it came to deciding what sort of outdoor dream space I wanted, I had to look no further than a canceled HBO show and a beloved-design era for inspiration.
I loved the show Carnivàle that was on a few years ago, not so much for the subject matter (though I liked that, too) but mostly for the atmosphere! No, I'm not suggesting I'd like to live at a time when the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl were the two most popular topics, but I sure do adore the look of the colors, furniture, clothes and more of this show and time period. I combined furniture from that time (both stylish and a little more down-to-earth) with lots of outdoor white lights and fun, vintage carnival details. A colorful but subdued color palette with pillows and rugs help tie it all together and modernize the look. Here's what I chose:
1. Commercial Medium-sized bulbs and string
2. Set of Four Cory Crooks Dining Chairs
3. Spanish Antique Farm Dining Table
4. Thonet Bentwood Bench
5. Two 1930s Stools by Thonet
6. Vintage Brass Carnival Midway Marquee
7a. Original Wood Carved Carnival Sideshow Letterpress Wood Cuts
7b. Carnival Gaming Wheel
7c. Collection Of Vintage Carnival Game Balls
7d. Tilt-A-Whirl Carnival Ride Panel
8. Ventura Sunbrella Indoor-Outdoor Pillows
9. 19th century Bentwood Lounge Chair by Thonet

charmed is charming!Friday, January 19, 2007
and so is this pattern.
The caption in the book Greetings from Knit Cafe reads:
"this is the perfect sweater to wear with your pajamas, especially on the mornings when you have to take the kids to school but don't feel like getting dressed....its the sweater you wear on Sundays curled up with the newspaper or while cutting flowers in your garden on cool mornings."
Wow, I felt like they were talking directly to me! I had to make this, and am I ever glad. I think it is the sweater I will wear daily! I made it out of Classic Elite Charmed. Although a little pricey, (o.k. a lot pricey) it is worth it and is my new favorite! So, so, warm. So, so, cozy, and that is what I am all about. Coziness!
Sorry the light in this photo is way off, I was just so happy the sun was shining!
Here is the skinny:
Slouchy Cardigan Greetings from Knit Cafe
10 balls Classic Elite Charmed, color heathered oatmeal
size US 8 needles
If you decide to make this remember to check out the pattern corrections.
The children have a teacher in service day today, so we are off to the children's museum. I think I will wear my slouchy cardigan! :)
Have a great weekend!

Android has a new flagship adventure game and we want to give you the best Tegra 3 tablet to experience it on. Today Phosphor Games released their highly anticipated game Horn to the Google Play store. Their previous title Dark Meadow featured the best graphics we have ever seen on Android, so we have really been looking forward to this new game that some are comparing to Zelda.
The Trailer
Phosphor Games describes the title: "Horn is a revolutionary third-person action adventure game where anyone can fully explore and enjoy a beautiful and engaging console-style world, all controllable by touch gestures. Inspired by the endearing character-based console games, Horn takes the richness of intricate worlds to explore, entertaining characters, thought-provoking puzzles, the excitement of combat, and memorable extraordinary situations — and makes them accessible for everyone to pick up and play.
Based loosely on the Old English tales of King Horn, you play as a young blacksmith's apprentice named Horn who wakes up to finds your village and lands over run by large fantastic, and sometimes humorous, monsters. It is revealed these creatures are actually the people and animals from your village transformed by a curse, and you alone have the power to free them. On your incredible adventure you carry the loud-mouthed head of one such fantastic creature with you – a somewhat uncooperative and ill-tempered but grudgingly helpful sidekick. Along with this new companion you must use your sword, crossbow, trusty musical horn, and wits to explore the lands, defeat the enemies, and solve puzzles in your quest to undo the curse that engulfs your homeland."
The Download
The Reviews
We just received our copy of Horn within the last 24 hours, so we haven't had a chance to complete the game yet and review it. However, the iOS version has been available for a couple of weeks and the early reviews are pretty amazing.
- IGN: "Horn is the real deal. It looks, sounds and plays great. The adventure may a little too linear and repetitive, but it's still a blast exploring this gorgeous and riveting world. The exploration, puzzle-solving and combat combine to create an enthralling adventure."
- iLounge: "The fact that Horn can be discussed in the same breath as vaunted Legend of Zelda titles is non-trivial, and between its graphics and audio, the game engine here is more impressive than anything Nintendo has put forward on any handheld console to date.
- 148apps: "As a fan of both the Legend of Zelda series on Nintendo consoles and the Infinity Blade franchise on iOS, I welcomed Horn with open arms. Believe it or not it delivers on both counts."
- Pocket-lint: "This is an app you want to show off your phone with: it has cutting-edge graphics, intuitive controls and more than enough gameplay to get stuck into."
Benefits of Tegra 3
Horn will be featured in TegraZone as it is optimized for Tegra 3 devices to include enhanced physics and additional physically simulated particle systems that respond to the player. You'll also notice cloth simulation on a number of the characters, dynamic water simulations, and enhanced shadows.
The Prize: Win a Transformer Pad Infinity with dock!
The ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity is the best Android tablet on the market period. It has the highest resolution display, fastest processor, longest battery life (with dock), and largest internal storage. We thought this was the best device to experience Horn and that's why we are giving it away. Thank you @NVIDIATegra for supplying the prize!

Hotels With Heavenly Hammocks
Hammocks may not make their way on the list of hotel must-haves; but maybe you'll rethink that once you realize how luxuriously relaxing they can be. Hammocks are more than Margaritaville coma catchers &mdash and we think they'll be hitting the top ten requirements for your next hotel stay.
How can they not be a necessity when you see hammocks like these? They're extremely relaxing and comfortable and turn you into a sort of cocoon while you're soaking up the sun, or listening to the waves crash against the beach.
We're going on vacation in August and looking at each of these hammocks in these far off places is making us want to find that marker and draw a giant x over each day. A countdown is the only way we're going to get through this next month.
&bull The Tides
&bull Wilson Island
&bull Sal Salis Ningaloo Reef
&bull Uxua Casa Hotel
&bull Hacienda Uayamon
Hammocks are also extremely popular for backyard lounging &mdash do you have one?

Hel -just don't go there!
Most of these problems disappear if you don't go to some hel-hole with 50x the fun and safe number of riders.
But the pictures and rules look good mostly.
It is obvious common sense to avoid sailboats and motorboats, but it's better not to make a "rule" that kiters give way to them.
This is opposite to colregs and sailing racing regs so just don't do it.
You especially don't want to put up signs showing kiters getting out of the way of boats, when the problem is, sometimes we are not able to get out of the way even if we try.
As for tricks, the same traffic rules apply, unless you have a contest or something where you can set up a tricks-only area.
For surfing, again the key is to find space.
If it's too crowded, waves are not going to be fun or safe, no matter what the rules are.
By the way, Richard although your post is way too long and I couldn't read it all,
I better point out I think you are dead wrong about port and starboard.
Every other water user follows the same colregs/rules of the road, and kiters better do it too,
or we will always lose out and be fighting boats and windsurfers
(from shore, after we get banned).

9th Arrondissement (Opera Garnier), Paris Travel Guide
9th Arrondissement (Opera Garnier) Summary
- Opera Garnier, a grand 19th century opera house
- Great shops, including several 19th-century department stores
- Pedestrian-friendly
- Convenient location for exploring the Right Bank
- Business and commercial hub
- Not as many great restaurants as nearby neighborhoods
- Few must-see sights
What It's Like
On the Right Bank of the Seine, the 9th Arrondissement is a neighborhood with beautiful architecture and several museums. But this area is more business-oriented than others in the city, as it is one of Paris's business "hubs," particularly around the Opera Garnier, the grand, 19th-century opera house. Also near the Opera Garnier is the neighborhood's central shopping area. Historic department stores and high-end boutiques are surrounded by covered walkways, reminiscent of the centuries-old markets that used to be set up in the area.
The 9th Arrondissement certainly has some nice restaurants and museums (it wouldn't be considered part of Paris without them). But there aren't as many great restaurants as there are, say, in the nearby 2nd and 8th Arrondissements. Some restaurants and bars are clustered around the 9th Arrondissement's Grands Boulevards, but it isn't as grand as it was in the 20th century. And the museums aren't quite up to par with those in other neighborhoods either; however, fans of symbolist paintings will enjoy the Gustave Moreau museum.
Where To Stay
Most hotels in the 9th Arrondissement are located toward the neighborhood's southern end, near the 2nd Arrondissement and closer to the Seine. This is a good location as the 2nd Arrondissement has numerous restaurants and the 1st Arrondissement below it is home to tons of iconic sights. Those in town for business (and shopping!) should consider staying near the Opera Garnier, as it marks the central business and commercial area of the nieghborhood.
