Python is growing and there a couple of projects to build CPAN style
functionality into the language (one called Trove and another called i
think 'PyPAN' or 'CPAN'(comprehensive python archive network) just for
the sake of clarity)
Python 2.2 will supposedly have nested scopes, and iterators as builtins.
Unfortunately Guido is also planning to make the
from <module> import *
idiom go away :( , ah well.
