This is where the process always gets bogged down. :-( Once we have material, that's the time to start arguing about where it should go.

Absolutely. Content first, details later.

Incidentally, I keep offering: Anyone that actually takes this on should feel free to rip off content from http://wingware.com/python -- I'm not saying this is the best content or the most complete but it's a start anyway (I wrote it in case that wasn't clear ;-)

Incidentally, if someone does get excited about working on this, check with me or another PSF board member.
