Nathan, 

If you ask me, I wouldn't like using 180 characters wide files. I work on my 
2005 15" laptop and I can't have more than 120 at a readable size font.

I don´t really know the glade version. I started using the 3.6.7 that comes 
with Ubuntu but it misses the encoding="UTF-8" header. Then I compiled the 
version 3.7.3 but I get some extra fields and warnings. Lately I just edit the 
xml files which is also faster for the type of changes I'm doing.

I think these are all worth having in the dev guide.

Some of the rules in PEP-8 are are bit stupid so we should list our
exceptions such as:
* only comments are limited to 80 character line length - the 80
character restriction improves readability of docstrings but often has
the opposite effect on a function body. For function body a 180 or 200
character limit is much more sensible.
* use camel case for acronyms - XmlHttpRequest is more readable than
XMLHTTPRequest and this is consistent with variable names which do not
capitalise acronyms

I also think the Google Python guide is worth using as a guide.
http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pyguide.html It
provides higher level style suggestions than PEP-8 which is mostly
just about formatting. I also have exceptions to the rules here such
as:
* import types not modules

I actually don't know what version of Glade is required. Have you
worked this out?
