[Fred L. Drake, Jr.]

Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org> added the comment:

I'll note that it seems relevant that this package is not considered
"externally maintained" by the terms of PEP 360:

    http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0360/

Given the level of attention this has received from the originator of
the code, we should not hesitate to commit technically acceptable
changes to the Python repository,
