Any PEP won't be accepted in few month, because we don't have flow to accept PEPs for now.
Is that certain? I haven't been following the process discussions, so I'm just asking the question. For example, given that you are already looking at PEP 580, would it be possible for you to handle PEP 580 as official BDFL-Delegate (even if there is no BDFL)?
I think this would be a reasonable thing to discuss either here or on the committers list or both.
If there was an absolute certainty of who the BDFL delegate would be then we might be able to not wait, but without that I don't know if enough core devs will feel comfortable choosing one right now.
We could proceed by consensus: the PEP author publicly proposes a PEP delegate, and if no core developer opposes, that person is officially accepted as delegate. Often PEP authors have a pretty good idea of who can be a delegate for a PEP. This is especially true on specialized topics which only a couple core devs are interested in discussing actively.
