Hm. But docutils isn't part of the standard library, and the documentation
refers to it. And the docs link to ActivePython and Enthought's Python
distribution. And they link to things like "Collin Winter’s functional
module" and Django and PyOpenGL and so forth.
I don't think anyone would seriously suggest removing all references to
third-party software from the Python documentation. Perhaps the criterion
that David is looking to have is explained is that people would probably
prefer for his app to get a bit more popular before Python itself starts
pointing people in its direction.
