Hi all,

I was looking for information about ptyhon.el and ipython.el and have
started making ipython work with python.el, when I stumbled on the
consolidation attempt of the two modes.

I checked out the python-mode launchpad project, and am now sending an
email.  Do I need to sign up to the python mailing list to see any
discussions?  Or does this email get me added to some secret list? ;)

I am very interested in getting everything under one roof, although
the discussion I read in January seems to indicate that this will
never be.

Just to sum up reasons that I had started using python.el
 - python-mode had shown no sign of life for about 5 years
 - The killer was the triple quote bug.  I was horribly stung by this,
   and at that point tossed python-mode even though the integration
   with ipython.el is hard to beat.
 - I am an emacs user, having given up on xemacs a couple of years
   ago, and it shows no sign of improving, so emacs specificity is not
   a problem for me, in fact it is a plus, as the various incompatible
   bits of the two systems do not start clogging up the code.

So my questions are:
 - Is the triple quote threat solved in python-mode (because it is in python.el)
 - It seems development has started up again, would this be correct,
   and is there a list of things to fix somewhere?  Also has Beverley
   Eyre compiled that list of features she mentioned back in January?

Please reply to me directly, esp. about a python-mode mailing list, so
I can sign up.

Thanks in advance for info. :)

Rohan
