I find it much better than the current site, thank you!

Whilst reading, http://beta.python.org/about/ I had some slight
niggles.
What do you think about the following changes?

About Python

Python is an agile programming language often compared to Tcl, Perl,
Ruby, Scheme or Java. While it has much in common with them it also has
unique features that set it apart.

        * remarkable power with very clear syntax
        * fully modular, with modules in individual files,
          or packages: a hierarchical arrangement of modules
          for larger projects.
        * intuitive object orientation, but also supports a
          functional style of programming too.
        * exception-based error handling
        * very high level dynamic data types that are easy to use.
        * interfaces to many system calls and libraries
        * access to multiple GUI toolkits (X11, Motif, Tk, Mac, MFC,
wxWidgets)
        * extensions and modules easily written in C, C++ or Python
        * embeddable within applications needing a scripting interface
