At Guido's suggestion, a new mailing list has been created named Python-Ideas (http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas). This list is meant as a place for speculative, pie-in-the-sky language design ideas to be discussed and honed to the point of practically being a PEP before being presented to python-dev or python-3000. This allows both python-dev and python-3000 to focus more on implementation work or final approval/denial of ideas instead of being flooded with long threads where people discuss ideas that are too nebulous to be considered for inclusion into Python. Like python-dev and python-3000, Python-Ideas requires you subscribe before you can post, but there is no moderator approval required. If you are interested in helping me out by being an administrator or moderator for the list, please let me know. -Brett
