Move idle PEPs to status deferred

Barry, We should start working on any PEPs that are going to be considered for Python 2.1. There are a bunch of old PEPs that have been assigned and then ignored. You have marked many of them as deferred. We should assign new authors for the PEPs we care about and move all the other deferred PEPs somewhere else in the index. The following PEPs have been inactive for at least two months: I 2 pep-0002.txt Procedure for Adding New Modules Raymond S 202 pep-0202.txt List Comprehensions Peters SD 205 pep-0205.txt Weak References Drake I 206 pep-0206.txt 2.0 Batteries Included Zadka SD 207 pep-0207.txt Rich Comparisons Ascher SD 208 pep-0208.txt Reworking the Coercion Model Ascher SD 209 pep-0209.txt Adding Multidimensional Arrays Ascher SD 210 pep-0210.txt Decoupling the Interpreter Loop Ascher SD 211 pep-0211.txt Adding New Linear Algebra Operators Wilson SD 212 pep-0212.txt Loop Counter Iteration Schneider-Kamp SD 213 pep-0213.txt Attribute Access Handlers Prescod SD 215 pep-0215.txt String Interpolation Yee I 216 pep-0216.txt Docstring Format Zadka SD 217 pep-0217.txt Display Hook for Interactive Use Zadka SD 218 pep-0218.txt Adding a Built-In Set Object Type Wilson SD 219 pep-0219.txt Stackless Python McMillan I 220 pep-0220.txt Coroutines, Generators, Continuations McMillan S 224 pep-0224.txt Attribute Docstrings Lemburg I think we should find new authors for PEPs 207 and 208 and work on them for 2.1. I imagine David would be happy to pass the torch on these issues. I assume Gordon will be working on the stackless PEPs, but we should confirm this. For all of the other PEPs, authors who want to have them considered for 2.1 should provide some updates to their PEPs. We should also simplfy the PEP index so that deferred PEPs are collected at the bottom or something like that. Jeremy

I was away from email for most of the day yesterday. I'll do a swing through all the outstanding PEP updates later today -- after I finish catching up on email. :( -Barry
