I think the problem is it's such great software and so rewarding to use that 
we all just beaver away programming!!!!

Having said that I agree.

I think a great place to start would be better examples for beginners, with a 
demo like the wxPython demo which shows at a very basic level how to use all 
the controls. I've been collecting bits of code in the hope that this would 
one day come to pass.

We could all contribute a small part if someone could oversee it.

Unfortunately like most people of the planet I suspect that many of us work 
inoordinate hours (I'm in general practice in Australia - get to work 7:30am, 
leave to go home at 6pm, on call 24/24 7/7, and that sort of stuff combined 
with the that that many of us are enthusiastic amateurs rather than trained 
seasoned programmers makes it difficult.
