If no one objects, I'd like to push PEP 376 in the "accepted" status and go ahead with its implementation, with continuous feedback at Distutils-SIG as we did to build it.
I think this isn't quite the process. In the past, every PEP required BDFL pronouncement, which you should now seek.
Agreed. While Guido is highly likely to just accept the distutils-sig consensus on something like this, that doesn't eliminate the need for him to actually *say* that he is approving the PEP on that basis.
Sure. :-) So what *is* the distutils-sig consensus? And is there consensus outside of it? (Remember the ipaddr debacle. It's easy for people to miss an important PEP.) -- --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
