9 years ago All python projects should be formatted according to the PEP8 standard which specifies that indentation should be 4 spaces. This not only helps with readability, but developers familiar with python will already be familiar with PEP8. This issue can be reopened if someone has a good reason why we should not follow PEP8 standard.

Oh, python
Our most practical choices are: 4 spaces (that's what cpg likes and has in his vimrc) tab characters 2 spaces 8 spaces
If you want to do something weird like 7 spaces we can discuss it, but we'll probably laugh at you.
