there are definitely all sorts of corner cases that are hard due to the
dynamic nature of python. but i think the bicycle repair man is using an
approach that can definitely help in python refactoring code. currently
refactoring python code is a time-consuming and error-prone process... all
the more reason for unit tests ;) seriously, if bicycle repair man can help
get a head start on refactoring even if its not complete i'm all for it.

as an aside on the type of inferencing that can still be done with python to
produce good effects, check out http://sf.net/projecs/psyco

good point. me too ;)  i'd rather have cvs integration first.
