To save us all trouble of discussing this particular issue, for
those of you who disagree completely, and have other ideas about how
you'd like Python to be governed and who should be in it, you can do
one or more of the following:

- not vote on my PEP
- vote on the other PEPs
- write their own PEP

I would remind people that it's well documented that diverse group make better decisions.

Can you point us to such documentation? It would be nice to know under which conditions the assertion holds, according to which metrics, etc.

Also, may I make the matter more concrete? You have been the BDFL during 20+ years. A one-person deciding group of a single white male is not exactly diverse. Retrospectively, do you think this led you to take worse decisions?
