Where should I submit a (likely short) style guide for review? I have recently reviewed PEP8 and updated the code for KiPadCheck and LayerViewSet to be compliant, so I can write a short document about the KiCad Python style for others to review.
There are other guides similar to style guides that might be relevant as well. PEP8 is great, and it already allows the main exception KiCad will probably need to specify: case of function names. PEP8 primarily suggests lower_case_with_underscore_separators, yet many of KiCad python methods seems to be specified as CamelCase. PEP8 essentially recommends "do this [specific thing], unless you need to do something else for consistency".
