In fact, Armin already had commit privileges since July 07, originally for
work on doctools (now Sphinx), which started out in the python.org repo.

Four shall be the number of spaces thou shalt indent, and the number of thy
indenting shall be four. Eight shalt thou not indent, nor either indent thou
two, excepting that thou then proceed to four. Tabs are right out.
