Re: python.el related problems

[Richard Stallman]

    For a while "lisp/progmodes/python.el" was removed on the release
    branch, but later was restored.

    However there were lots of _other_ things changed in the original
    removal -- "etc/emacs.py", mentions in the docs, NEWS/README-type files
    etc. -- that weren't similarly restored when python.el itself was
    restored.

The person who removed it jumped the gun.  It may be the case that we
need to remove it, but he should not have removed it precipitously.

I am still trying to get the necessary information to determine
whether we can use the file.
