I strongly agree with the idea of writing documents that describe a bit of 
history to help orient new contributors to IDLE as to where the involved 
contributors see it going.

As a new comer, before I started to trace the codes of idlelib. A question 
bothers me all the time. "Why do we need idlelib since there are so many 
brilliant IDEs out there?" And I'm not sure whether should I keep reading the 
codes or not.

So, I want to say Thank you to Terry. Your draft helped me. 

I'm really happy to see this question had been discussed in summer 2010. And 
the result is to modernize idlelib. 

However, I have a suggestion :)

Although the result of the discussion is to modernize. I suggest to add few 
lines to describe the reasons why this decision had been made. And references 
(if possible) are needed to provide since some readers might want to see the 
original discussion.

How do you think? :)

Hi Terry, Louie and Cheryl

I would like to work with you guys. :)

However, I still need some time to study the codes.

Now I am focusing on reading unit tests. By reading the tests, I can know how 
the code works and further to write tests that are necessary but yet to write.
