I was at his talk this morning at pycon canada. It was a very good talk, the highlight of the conference. I like his approach, although I think it'll be a challenge to get there since not everyone has his "visionary" and api building skills, but someone has to start somewhere. Well done.
Also there- loved it. I think the key is what he said about writing the readme first. Write the docs on how you'd want to use the software, then hold yourself to that API when you actually write it.
