So far I'm just using Emacs, but I can't really say I'm very efficient 
at Python programming yet.  I had problems getting WingIDE to work, 
first around the licensing, then the setup just seemed too inconvenient 
and I never got into it and just stuck with Emacs.  I'd also like to 
try again if the barriers have been reduced any since 6 months ago.

I use Oxygen to modify the parcel XML files, it does nice XML syntax 
highlighting and hierarchical navigation.  If we had a DTD for the 
legal parcel XML then Oxygen could even do validation.
