I used to prefer `:=` but coming back to this topic after a long interval I am happy with `=>` and perhaps I even like it more, Chris.😁 The PEP status is "Draft". What are the chances of something happening any time soon, i.e. the PEP being considered by the Steering Committee? Or is it still too controversial, or is there some other obstacle? In case it's not clear, I support the PEP. I think it plugs an obvious gap.
The main obstacle is that I got weary of responding to emails on it, put it on the back burner, and let the topic go cold. To revive it, what I'd recommend is: Go through the PEP and figure out everything that *you* would need to see done before *you* would approve it, supposing that you were a member of the SC. Then either suggest wording changes, or at least list your concerns, and we can reopen the discussion. ChrisA
