Yeah, I am quite interested in this project; sadly, I don't know any elisp,
but I'll start doing some reading over the summer.

I also have a project course coming up (I'm an engineering undergrad), and
I'd also like to do something for the open source community as part of that,
and seeing as how I use python so often, and use emacs, this would be an
ideal project (it starts in January, which is still a way's away).

I'm especially interested in making a more featureful auto-completion
method, or would you guys have any ideas on something I can embark on?  I
can put about 12-20 hours on it a week for about 3 months, twice that if I
can find a partner :P

Cheers,
Kelvie

PS. Any recommended reading material?

The way I look at it is that python-mode pretty much does what most
of us developing it want it to do, so there's little incentive to
keep hacking on it.  I do occasionally add support for new keywords
and such (Python 2.5's with-statement being a recent addition).
Other than that, not much development is going on, but we certainly
welcome new blood if someone wants to start working on it again.
