Consider a python linter?

[Fnux]

I believe we could add a linter such as pylint to the development workflow. I am familiar with perlcritic (perl) and rubucop (ruby) and those tools are great to avoid/fix synthax inconsistencies and common errors. It's also nice for new contibutors that are not yet familiar with the language (as I am) :-)

What do you think?

I've thought about it, I see the usefulness and I'm sure I'll add something at some point =) I was thinking about something like flake8 - I think we even had a discussion about it at some point.
