org.python.stdlib, surely? <wink>
I don't have a problem with reorganising the standard library, but
what's the motivation for moving everything under a new root? Is it
just to allow people to unambigiously get hold of something from the
stdlib, rather than following the normal search path? Doesn't the
absolute/relative import PEP solve this problem?
And what does 'from py import *' do, anyway?
