"we have a plan to make 'unittest' conform with the existing PEP 8" - that was the outcome of the discussion. PEP 8'ification to begin in 2.7 / 3.1 with the deprecation of non-PEP8 compliant method names.

Thanks, that's exactly the reassurance I was hoping for :-)

I volunteered to take it on, and have a record of the whole discussion. Unfortunately my writing commitment is going to keep me occupied until August - after which it will be one of my highest priorities.

I've contacted you yesterday regarding this, but to reiterate: This issue is of interest to me, and I'd like to help with it if I can. Please contact me privately if I can be of assistance, especially if I can help during your busy period.
