Looking for a couple Emacs Lisp helper/guru types

Barry & Ken have run completely out of round tuits on which are written "python-mode". I believe Barry indicated privately that he is going to set up a SF project to allow other folks to contribute (maybe he's just going to give Python CVS developer privileges to anyone, he may be just that giddy after the 2.3 release). I have very little time as well and have very old, feeble Emacs Lisp skills to boot. Hell, I can't even get my Python files to save properly with tramp these days, and I never did like mapcar. I'm sure Barry will announce here and probably on c.l.py once the project's available, but in anticipation of that, if you are an Emacs or XEmacs person who uses python mode, please consider getting reacquainted with your inner functional self. Your parens will be so proud. Skip

Heh, all it takes is a $10k donation to the PSF. Or you can make the checks out to me, if you prefer. Sshhhh! Don't tell Guido! Naw, seriously. I have created a SF project for python-mode development and about all I've done so far is to make Skip and Ken co-admins. I'd like to move python-mode.el to its CVS (and probably "disable" updates to Misc/python-mode.el) but I won't have time for that today. Skip's been making some checkins to python-mode.el, so he can feel free to set up the SF project's CVS <wink>. As far as I'm concerned, anybody who wants check-in privileges on the python-mode project <http://sf.net/projects/python-mode> is welcome to it, although I'd hope we'd still discuss some of the controversial or bigger changes on some mailing list. To that effect, there is currently a python-mode@python.org alias which just goes to me and Ken right now. I'm willing to turn that into a Mailman list and use that as the main focal point for mode development. -Barry
