 Only you and your module's users may tell...
 

I'd use it.

  First off, I have never programmed in python. I would like to use
  this project to learn python.
 
 Well, this might be an answer to your first question !-)
 

If you can get your mind off the @#)*[EMAIL PROTECTED]-ing Perl syntax, 
you'll be
fine;-)

  Another question is, if I do this where can I put the results?
  As far as I know python has no CPAN.
 http://www.python.org/pypi/
 

They're working on the Python version of CPAN, but it's taking a long
time.  I think they started in 1998 or so?  Haven't kept up, so I have
no idea what's taking so long.  I'm sure someone more knowledgeable than
me will come along and set us straight.

Metta,
Ivan

This was from the same source I used to create ny module.

I checked out the above link (thanks!!)  I need to look deeper
at the docs for creating a module

Thanks all for the responses!!

Well, start with wrting the code - you'll take care of 
how-to-distribute-it later.

Thanks all for the responses!!
You're welcome.
