Hi Mark, thanks for the feedback!

I haven't read the PEP8 correctly, I thought the length limit was 80 characters, but I see it's 79 indeed.

I decided to validate only this PEP8 feature for now (maximum line length) for all files instead of completely cleaning file by file. At least now there'll be one less rule left :-)

I'll send a new patch fixing the new line length value.

Personally,  I don't like the fix special for the line length.  I prefer to include it in a pep8 clean for a file.
The reason is that:  even if fix the line length, we don't have a tool to check new changed code does't
have this problem.  But for pep8, there's no this kind of problem.  After we clean up one file,  we can
add it to the WHITELIST,  and the developer can check if it cause new style problem by running 'make check-local'

Hi Crístian,

I like the idea of cleanup,  but for python projects,  we should comply with PEP8[1], which limit all lines to a maximum of 79 characters.   So after we can all files pep clean,  it will resolve the line length problem too.

If you have interest in the pep8 clean,  you could use the command line tool pep8 and or vim plugin[2] to check if a python file is pep8 clean.  After the cleanup,  we need put it to the list of PEP8_WHITELIST in Makefile.am.  It can guarantee the files are checked when 'make check-local'  is executed.
