Welcome the 3.8 and 3.9 Release Manager - Łukasz Langa!
As Ned just announced, Python 3.7 is very soon to enter beta 1 and thus feature freeze. I think we can all give Ned a huge round of applause for his amazing work as Release Manager for Python 3.6 and 3.7. Let’s also give him all the support he needs to make 3.7 the best version yet. As is tradition, Python release managers serve for two consecutive releases, and so with the 3.7 release branch about to be made, it’s time to announce our release manager for Python 3.8 and 3.9. By unanimous and enthusiastic consent from the Python Secret Underground (PSU, which emphatically does not exist), the Python Cabal of Former and Current Release Managers, Cardinal Ximénez, and of course the BDFL, please welcome your next release manager… Łukasz Langa! And also, happy 24th anniversary to Guido’s Python 1.0.0 announcement[1]. It’s been a fun and incredible ride, and I firmly believe that Python’s best days are ahead of us. Enjoy, -Barry [1] https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!original/comp.lang.misc/_QUzdEGFwCo/...
That's awesome! A great choice. Congrats, Łukasz. Eric. On 1/27/2018 4:02 PM, Barry Warsaw wrote:

Hardly a surprising choice! Congrats, Łukasz. (And never forget that at every Mac OS X upgrade I have to install the extended keyboard just so I can type that darn Ł. :-) On Sat, Jan 27, 2018 at 1:07 PM, Eric V. Smith <eric@trueblade.com> wrote:

Heh, I *just* learned that, at least on macOS High Sierra (and probably going back several releases), on a US keyboard you can press and hold the ‘L’ (cap-L) key. A little popup will appear like the attached image (if this doesn’t get stripped by Mailman). Hit ‘1’ and the slashy-L will get entered: Ł. Cheers -Barry
Cool trick! Works on Sierra too. I guess it's all part of Apple's drive to merge iOS and OS X... On Sat, Jan 27, 2018 at 2:12 PM, Barry Warsaw <barry@python.org> wrote:

And on Linux (X11) there's a compose key [1] Compose + / + L = Ł You have to map Compose first, as it's not a physical button on modern keyboards: setxkbmap -option compose:ralt [1] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Keyboard_configuration_in_Xorg#Configur...
