I'm probably not the best person to participate in this. While I definitely can understand the appeal and applaud the effort to provide Python developers with a really fantastic Emacs-based development environment, it's probably not something I would personally use. But hey, I'm old so ignore me and go for it! :) >Integrating more stuff might result into an collection >like emacs-w3m. > >BTW if entered that path, suggest a split of current >python-mode.el too, think smaller files grouped >thematically as for pdb for example are easier to >debug. > >Not to get folks bewildered, suggest to keep stuff as >is in python-mode.el at the known place.

I'm not in favor of splitting python-mode.el up much personally because I think it's really easy for people to grab and install as one file. Perhaps think about building optional tools around python-mode and keeping python-mode.el as the basic support for .py file editing? I see no reason why this larger effort couldn't be housed inside the python-mode project on Launchpad though, as long as we continue to make it easy (and obvious) how to download and install python-mode.el for those wanting something simpler. -Barry
