+////////////////////
+
+Thanks to both Apple including Python with OS X and PyObjC_,
+the included Mac modules in Python are obsolete.
+Apple's Cocoa API will always be more up-to-date than Python's own
+attempt at maintaining wrappers. Plus Apple can be expected to
+include useful Mac-only modules that third-parties do not provide.
