[Python-Dev] HTML Side By Side Differencing -- Alpha3

[Dan Gass]

I'm looking for a developer to apply this patch for inclusion in
Alpha3.  The patch provides methods to generate side by side
differences in HTML format (highlights and hyperlinks changed areas). 
The patch adds functionality to the difflib.py module without changing
any of the existing code (low risk of breaking anything).  There has
been a good deal of participation in improving and reviewing the
patch.

What I need is someone who has check in privileges and feels
comfortable implementing the patch.  I've had good support (see patch
comments) from a number of people with the exception of some
hesitation from Martin v. Löwis which was countered by arguments from
Tim Peters and Jim Jewett.

In addition to having a wider audience to solicit help from, this is
being posted on Python-Dev to provide an opportunity for others to
comment on the patch as well since it is being considered for
inclusion in Alpha3.

For that person who steps forward I can promise that I will provide
any needed support in a timely manner.

Thanks,
Dan Gass
