Ezio Melotti <ezio.melo...@gmail.com> added the comment: Of the new ones, only the sched_* ones share a common prefix, the *xattr and *at functions share a common suffix, and it's difficult to find them e.g. in dir() (also it's difficult to find other common os functions among all the names). The fact that the Posix API and C in general use a flat API doesn't seem to me a valid reason to do the same in Python. Having the same name is a good reason to avoid sched.*, even if I don't think that having sched.* will make finding/recognizing these functions much more difficult.
