IDLE is part of the Python standard library and, as such, is developed 
using the same process as other parts of the library, with a few 
variations (primarily as described in PEP 434).  The process is 
described in detail in the Python Developer's Guide.  I suggest reading 
that first and then, if necessary, consider proposing a new section to 
it for any differences needed in IDLE development.
