<div style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif; font-size:11pt">One of my main engineering concerns is lack of shared knowledge a.k.a. the truck factor (not CPython specific, btw, just every project I work on). So I'm always keen to get multiple people working
on new code asap. I also prefer installers to be treated as part of the product and updated with whatever changes affect it, though that basically never happens in my experience :)<br>
<br>
I assume the PEP will need updating if it specifies the exact path, and the installer readme may have a reference too. Presumably it'll only affect 3.5, as previous versions wouldn't use the directory for anything other than installing scripts.<br>

I was sort of hoping you'd be doing that independently, but never mind<br>
:-) I'll give it a go and shout if I get stuck.<br>
