Sorry, meant mixedCase (as it was in the XML example). Peter confused
me by writing "myCamelNames"

"""
Function Names

   Function names should be lowercase, possibly with words separated by
   underscores to improve readability.  mixedCase is allowed only in
   contexts where that's already the prevailing style (e.g. threading.py),
   to retain backwards compatibility.

Method Names and Instance Variables

   The story is largely the same as with functions: in general, use
   lowercase with words separated by underscores as necessary to improve
   readability.
