This is to let you all know that PEP 3149 is accepted.

Benjamin and I decided that on the basis that

• strong precedent is set with PEP 3147
• it is not mutually exclusive with PEP 384; should PEP 384 become

widely accepted, its use can fade out again

• it is a strictly optional feature

Barry promised the code will go in before this weekend's alpha2, so that distributors can subject the new code to proper testing, should they choose to use PEP 3149 features.

Thanks very much Georg and Benjamin. I am going to merge the code in the next hour or so.
