Python 1.6 is on a short release schedule, mostly just waiting for Unicode
and distutils to arrive. If we have time/inclination to get stuff in
before that occurs, and we believe it is the Right Thing, then why wait?
That seems rather artificial.

One argument (of course) is stability. I don't see that as a problem in
the case of moving modules.

Personally, I'm okay with a partial move. I don't think that we'll be able
to find proper packaging for everything. Let's shift the modules, review
what's left, shift some more, etc. Lather/rinse/repeat.

Even if we don't "complete the move", then we've still *improved* the
situation.

Cheers,
