Stop apologizing -- it's embarrassing <wink>.

It's not a problem.

Not necessarily.  While enthusiasm is rare on python-dev some weeks, that
doesn't mean we all object to it <wink>.  My advice is to read a bit first
about how Python development gets done:

    http://www.python.org/dev/

You're already getting the sharp end of what the "Why Work on Python?" link
there describes as

    The most important skill Python can teach is the delicate skill of
    working in a diverse group.

I hope you stick around, and bring your module enhancements to a successful
release!
