May I assume it wouldn't bother you having millions of packages containing only one module each (plus their __init__.py's) where the modules only provide around one function.
OK, go ahead. Modify the whole Python-library to conform to that style and then send us the bill from your psychiatrist. This may be a nice idea for the Next Overwhelming Programming Escapade (Codename: NOPE), but you can just forget about it in Python. Excuse my mocking, but while typing dots is far easier for US and German keyboards, this may be a whole different story for any other layout (I forget how it goes with the french layout; shift for the dot or the comma?). Back to the drawing boards! ;) /W PS You may want to elaborate on the "new way to think about names". Maybe you have a point which I just don't see. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
