the pylintrc file is cloned from the one chromium uses in depot_tools, tweaked to follow webkit's coding standards roughly. I will probably want to tweak it some more once I've run it over more of the codebase.

We'll want to integrate this into check-webkit-style at some point so that it gets run automagically.

Do we need to say something about SVN here?

We'd like to do this at some point.  Importing into __init__ turns out to be sketchier than we realized.

Possibly; I haven't tried this under svn yet.

Yeah, there's probably a few things we should turn on.

Also, I need to fix the license text in lint-webkitpy. Somehow the version I added the text to didn't get included in the patch.
