That I've seen myself? No (NEWS doesn't show any specific patch
attributions, but he is listed in ACKS. If I've missed anything, Terry
will hopefully let me know).

My suggestion was more a matter of someone I trust to do a good job of
reviewing and selecting for inclusion improvements to IDLE to provide
KBK with more support than the existing comitters are able to provide.
I realise it isn't the way we normally do things, but in this specific
case I think it is worth a try.

Cheers,
Nick.
