Is a vote for ST-NG a vote for Bush too? <duck!>

OK, as soon as my home computer finishes upgrading dpkg and I can connect
to it for more then 1 Byte/sec, I'll add references to ST-NG in the PEP.
Note that this means that we have to address Mark H's comments:

 -- extending ST-NG for Python's use (see goals "a" and "b" in the PEP)
 -- enforcing meta-ST-NG rules, so the collection of all docstrings will
    form a valid ST-NG document (or perhaps not. Is this the next
    doc-flamewar?)

documentation's-fun!-ly y'rs, Z.
