I've always found the source easier to read than epydoc. And the summaries
leave a lot to be desired. Here's a current example:
IS_EMPTY_OR
dummy class for testing IS_EMPTY_OR
IS_NULL_OR
dummy class for testing IS_EMPTY_OR
Now that's helpful.
My point with the book is that the information is already there, but scattered
and hard to find.
