GvR is in charge of everything in the standard distribution.
Bugs are best reported (and discussed) on the newsgroup,
patches should be sent directly to GvR (but a copy to the
newsgroup can never hurt).

before reporting bugs, see:
http://www.python.org/1.5/
(you may also wish to check the newsgroup archive
to see if your bug has already been reported).

before you submit patches, see:
http://www.python.org/1.5/patch.html
