"Batteries Included" is a well-published motto of Python. And it's
true, more modules than I would ever need are included in the base
distribution. However, I do miss relational database access. Especially
the intefaces with MySQL and PostgeSQL. And it would be nice to have
modules which interface with mature, and popular (common) protocols as
SOAP and Jabber. Of course, if everyone's favourite module would be
included, then I suppose the Python distribution wold be unmaintainable.
So what are the criteria for the inclusion of a module in Python? User
support? Availability on a speciifc number of platforms?
Regards,
Iwan
