In the meantime, can you fix a few small inaccuracies in python.el?

;; There is another Python mode, python-mode.el, used by XEmacs and
;; maintained with Python.  That isn't covered by an FSF copyright
;; assignment, unlike this code, and seems not to be well-maintained
;; for Emacs (though I've submitted fixes).  This mode is rather
;; simpler and is better in other ways.  In particular, using the
;; syntax functions with text properties maintained by font-lock makes
;; it more correct with arbitrary string and comment contents.

python-mode.el is now maintained as a separate package, by some of the  
core Python developers and others.  Please include a link to its  
project page:

http://launchpad.net/python-mode

Also, python-mode.el works perfectly fine with Emacs.  I use it 8+  
hours a day this way.

Thanks,
Barry
