/Applications/Somewhere might seem a bit more friendly and familiar 
to novices and newcomers. What would be the advantages of 
/Developer/Somewhere? Sticking them in with other MacPython-related 
apps in /Applications/MacPython-2.x may be option option, though may 
be better from a marketing PoV to use a more high-profile, visible 
location like /Applications/Appscript (could maybe stick the 
appscript docs in there too).

p.s. Incidentally, if we could think of some way to make the 
appscript documentation show up in Help Center like MacPython's does, 
that'd be an additional plus.
