How will the imaging be done for python?
We haven't ironed out the details quite yet, but it will be similar to previous years: use the official FRC imaging tool to stick the right things on it, then run an installation script to copy the right files to it. It's possible that we'll build this functionality into the Eclipse plugin too.

One thing that I'm hoping to do is make it super easy to install other python packages on the robot too. That too, is TBD. However, I've got a lot of vacation/holiday time coming up...

For anyone interested in contributing to RobotPy, let me know, and I'll give you read access to our 2015 github repositories + wpilib source for 2015. There's a lot of work done -- and yet still a lot to finish up! The more people that contribute, the better the end product will be.
