If your collaborators don't mind the existence of some Org-mode specific
comments in the .py file, you can tangle with comments on and then use
the `org-babel-detangle' function to bring changes in the source file
back into your Org-mode buffer. In this way it should be possible for
you to collaborate without leaving Org-mode.

Hello,
I have taken a reverse approach, even with no collaboration.
I write the source code in pure $LANGUAGE (fortran 90 for now) and
add comments in org-mode syntax with a special header:
in prog.f90
!!subroutine compute
! This subroutine performs a task
subroutine compute(myarg)
integer, intent(in) :: myarg
write(*,*) myarg
end subroutine compute
get translated by a script to
** subroutine compute
This subroutine performs a task
#begin_src f90
subroutine compute(myarg)
integer, intent(in) :: myarg
write(*,*) myarg
end subroutine compute
#end_src
which can be exported with the language font locking of emacs in html
via orgmode. It gives me a typeset documentation from my source code
directly.
I think that a feature similar to C-' in org-mode would be wonderful:
I could edit my "pure" f90 program and edit my comment blocks in org-
mode.
Regards,
Pierre
