Interest in seeing sh.py in the stdlib

[Andrew Moffat]

Hi,

I'm the author of sh.py, a subprocess module rewrite for Linux and OSX.  It
serves as a powerful and intuitive interface to launching subprocesses
http://amoffat.github.com/sh/.  It has been maintained on github
https://github.com/amoffat/sh for about 10 months and currently has about
25k installs, according to pythonpackages.com.

Andy Grover maintains the Fedora rpm for sh.py
http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=94247  and Nick
Moffit has submitted an older version of sh.py (which was called pbs) to be
included in Debian distros
http://pkgs.org/debian-wheezy/debian-main-i386/python-pbs_0.95-1_all.deb.html

I'm interested in making sh.py more accessible to help bring Python forward
in the area of shell scripting, so I'm interested in seeing if sh would be
suitable for the standard library.  Is there any other interest in
something like this?

Thanks
Andrew Moffat
