It would be *very* interesting if someone was willing to do some stats on PEPs over time: e.g. number of PEPs discussed every year, discussion length, number of discusssion participants. I actually expect overall PEP activity to have gone down since the 2000s.
I counted the number of emails per PEP (sent to python-dev or python-ideas) on the period Jan 2017 - April 2018: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-committers/2018-April/005310.html
My script: https://github.com/vstinner/misc/blob/master/python/parse_mailman_mbox_peps....
I downloaded "[ Gzip'd Text 227 KB ]" links from https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/ and https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/ and then uncompressed them.
