Wow!  Fast!  So, since I'm not a dev and don't know the ropes, what is the next step to get the method included?

In the list archives, this thread

   http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2009-April/003897.html

discusses adding a clear() method to list objects, to complement those available for sets and dictionaries.  Later in the thread:

   http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2009-April/003933.html

Christian Heimes provided a patch to do it and R. H. commented that all it would take is Guido's blessing.

So, I'm wondering, can we do this?  What are the steps needed to ask this work to be blessed?
