[Distutils] Improved Stats Features in Python

[Rui Sarmento]

Hi Ralf,

Yes, in fact I was trying to submit in git but I have some doubts. I 
will explore it more tomorrow (it is late here).

For example I still have doubts with this:

"If you are adding new functionality, you need to add it to the 
documentation by editing (or creating) the appropriate file in 
|docs/source|."

What exactly is "the appropriate file"?

and also "Open the |docs/source/release/versionX.X.rst| file that has 
the version number of the next release and add your changes to the 
appropriate section", I see that the last version in the repository is 
version0.8.rst but I'm not sure this is the file I should edit...

Maybe tomorrow with a good night sleep I'll figure it out.

Cheers,

Rui
