Initial Comment:
I would very much like a
/usr/share/applications/python.desktop file so that
Python can be started from the Program-menu in Linux,
just like you can from the Start-menu in Windows. I
think it would be very neat and good for beginners.

In trunk there are PC/py.ico, PC/pyc.ico, PC/pycon.ico. I
guess they would all work as icons, but I choose pycon.ico
because that is the icon used on windows. I also wonder if
the desktop file can be applied soon? It seems pretty
trivial and uncontroversial to me.

I added German translation. Regarding the icon: I do not
like that very much. Isn't there another Python icon
available in the standard sizes?

I have attached a .desktop file and an icon. python.desktop
goes into /usr/share/applications and pycon.png into
/usr/share/pixmaps. It's only translated to Swedish because
I don't know other languages to well.
