I don't like the section on coding style. A while back we agreed that people 
can choose it freely as long as every package in the *namespace* has the same 
style. So for example, ``zope`` and ``z3c`` use the original Zope 3 
styleguide, while ``zc`` uses PEP8 compliance.

This is much easier to keep track of than having to remember every package's 
style.

I personally do not like underscore-style method naming, so I would never use 
it for packages that I am starting from scratch. I do honor other people's 
decisions though, and would always follow the original author's style. 
Consistency is better than correctness in this case. (I usually tend to value 
correctness higher than consistency.)

Stephan
