Perhaps many just don't know how to "join the club". If I had not been
working with David and Mark I would not have picked up on the development
system very easily.
I don't read any of the intro documentation so that may have improved in the
past couple of years but an indication that it has not is that:
(1) The "for developers" section on http://www.python.org/ is kind of
buried and weeny (and outdated: "including the Python 2.1 release
schedule"); and
(2) Andrew's "Becoming a Python Developer" is hard to find:
