Subject: A cleansing pass, almost entirely cosmetic.  Such things as
 whitespace normalization, removal of tabs, copyright year updates to changed
 files, docstring and comment fixes, and usage of True/False.  I also made a
 pass through the NEWS file.

One import was reordered, and after this commit I will move the mmdsr.readme
file to README.mmdsr.

From my perspective, after that we're ready to go.

I will port these changes forward to the trunk.
