I think that right now there is a promising ongoing happening that
may be useful for this PR problem and Python perception in general,
which is the Chandler project, because it's a piece of software that may
end up in front of lot of people. It is both an opportunity and a risk.
A not great success of Chandler especially if imputed to Python
shortcomings would be bad.
I think that people with long-time Python experience that feel like to
contribute should try.
A successful, responsive Chandler, I think, would be a good thing for
Python.
