by it (along with the rest of the audience which was obviously
impressed as well).

I think argprase is a good improvement over what we have now (getopt
and optparse), it's stable, considered best-of-breed by the community
for a while (as shown as how many times argparse has been suggestion
for inclusion), and Steven is already a core committer so is already
set to maintain the code. That covers the usual checklist we have for
even looking at a PEP to add a module to the standard library.



I've used argparse and really like it. I could also have done with the subcommand support in recent changes to unittest.

+1 for inclusion.

+1 as well. I wish I had been able to use this library for a recent project using sub-commands.
