Accepting PEP 489 (Multi-phase extension module initialization)
Hi all,
After extended discussion over the last several months on import-sig, the resulting proposal for multi-phase (PEP 451) extension module initialization has finalized. The resulting PEP provides a clean, straight-forward, and backward-compatible way to import extension modules using ModuleSpecs.
With that in mind and given the improvement it provides, PEP 489 is now accepted. I want to thank Petr, Nick, and Stefan for the time, thought, and effort they put into the proposal (and implementation). It was a disappointment to me when, at the time, we couldn't find a good way to apply PEP 451 to builtins and extension modules. So thanks for easing my anxiety!

I echo that sentiment. Thank you for your work.

Thank you for the thorough review, Eric! Also thanks to everyone involved for insightful discussion, and especially Nick for guiding me through writing my first PEP. Let me know if there's anything more I can (or should -- still my first time) do. I'm off now but I'll be online tomorrow all day (UTC-ish hours).

Ah, what a nice way to start my weekend :)
Thanks especially to Petr both for writing the PEP itself, and for taking the general ideas Stefan and I originally had and turning them into a real implementation.
Cheers, Nick.
