I think UML would be an excellent means of visualizing a large Python
project. After all, UML is supposed to be language neutral and an
attribute of a class is an attribute of a class, whether it's typed or
not.
I'm not familiar with the term "acquisition" in this context - do you
mean something like a "has-a" relationship?
Now all that's needed is a UML tool based on WxWindows or tkinter!
