I was thinking about providing documentation, but I thought maybe I'd leave it for you Georg. It's nice to get an outside perspective when documenting a new api.... <wink>

I have issue 14295 to track adding mock and it won't be closed until the docs are completed. 

	http://bugs.python.org/issue14295

On the topic of docs.... mock documentation is about eight pages long. My intention was to strip this down to just the api documentation, along with a link to the docs on my site for further examples and so on. I was encouraged here at the sprints to include the full documentation instead (minus the mock library comparison page and the front page can be cut down). So this is what I am now intending to include. It does mean the mock documentation will be "extensive".

All the best,

Michael

May you find forgiveness for yourself and forgive others
May you share freely, never taking more than you give.
