So...how's that post mortem coming along? Did you get a sufficient 
answer to your questions?

And the more interesting question is, will the effort to reform Python's 
path functionality continue? From reading all the responses to your 
post, I feel that the community is on the whole supportive of the idea 
of refactoring os.path and friends, but they prefer a different 
approach; And several of the responses sketch out some suggestions for 
what that approach might be.

So what happens next?
