Guido van Rossum:
CamelCase for class names is still recommended Indeed.
...
Another pronouncement then: modules/packages need to be short all-lower names (no underscores).
StringIO, cPickle and SimpleXMLRPCServer etc. were mistakes.
The whole point of StringIO is its class. So if it were rewritten in modern style, a user would write:
from userlist import UserList
from stringio import StringIO
Is this correct?
