I wonder if putting this into a PEP might be a little heavyweight in terms of making adjustments to the platform triples and their priorities? I perhaps think something that's a look aside table with a defined policy of how to move various triples up and down might work better?
If the SC is ultimately going to be the arbiter of consensus on the status of a platform, then a PEP is no less heavyweight than some other process. Plus I don't see this list fluctuating regularly, so I don't think this is any worse than e.g. the devguide.

I brought this up on python-dev at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/thread/ZPBSHENP3... , and the feedback seemed supportive. As such, I am bringing a draft of what I'm thinking will go into PEP 11 with a bunch of
XXX
placeholders for people to help me fill in to see how this will look overall.For any platform(s) you support, please reply with any relevant details that should be added to the relevant tables below. Once I have these details I will loop back with the proposed update to PEP 11 and make sure everyone is still on board with the proposal.
===== Tiers
Tier 1
Test suite failures < https://github.com/python/cpython/actions/workflows/build.yml?query=branch%3Amain+is%3Acompleted>
__ block releases.- Changes which would break the
main
branch are not allowed to be merged; any breakage may be reverted immediately.- All core developers are responsible to keep these platforms working.
- Promotion of this tier requires consensus/SC approval.

.. [ubuntu-20_01] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/2.31-0ubuntu9.4
Tier 2
- Must have a stable buildbot.
- At least **two** core developers are signed up to support the platform.
- Changes which break any of these platforms are to be reverted within 24 hours.
- Failures of these platforms block a release.
- Promotion of this tier requires consensus/SC approval.

- Must have a stable buildbot.

- Test failures do **not** block releases.
- Promotion to this tier is self-service.
