Even in python standard library there are mixtures ie threading.Thread. Although those (as I understand it) are just remnants of old implementation that is kept for backwards compatibility.

Isn't that normal? I though lowercase module name, uppercase class was the standard casing.

threading.Thread would seem to be consistent with the Google Python Style Guide (threading = module, Thread = Class)

the methods of threading.Thread are camel case (ie getName)
