This list (as of February 2007) has medium to high traffic.
This (somewhat old) roundup instance still serves to file bugs and track issues. However, we also keep a list of "TODOs" in various directories.
We are practicing what could be called documentation, vision, discussion and automated-test driven development. In the future book we try to layout visions and ideas for the near coding feature to give a means for preliminary feedback before code hits the ground.
With our coding style we are mostly following cpython guidance with some additional restrictions some of which projects like twisted or zope3 have adopted in similar ways.
codespeak is employing a liberal committing scheme. If you know someone who is active on codespeak already or you are otherwise known in the community then you will most probably just get access. But even if you are new to the python developer community you may still get one if you want to improve things and can be expected to honour the style of coding and communication.
