I couldn't agree more! (Another thought, occasionally useful,is to
consider that surely the number of Python programs yet to be written,
and the number of Python programmers who yet have to learn the
language, must surely exceed the current count. At least, one would
hope so -- if that's not true, we might as well stop now. :-)

Nick, do you have it in you to fix PEP 343? Or at least come up with a
draft patch? We can take this off-linel with all the +0's and +1's
coming in I'm pretty comfortable with this change now, although we
should probably wait until later today to commit.
