My personal preference is camelCase over words_with_underscores, but fundamentally, this is a bit of a religious issue. Pick a style, and go with it. If you're working on existing code, go with the prevailing style. If you're working in a group, pick a common style and go with the group decision. Of all the software engineering issues to worry about, this is pretty low on the list. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
