Looking for a co-author for a PEP about variable declarations
I've written up a wall of text at https://github.com/python/typing/issues/258 and would like to develop it into a PEP at an accelerated schedule. Is anyone interested in helping out? This *could* be a great mentoring opportunity. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido)
Well, I don't really have much experience, and, last time I offered to help, I was mostly ignored... But you *did* say "mentoring opportunity"... I have this week off since college work starts next week. -- Ryan [ERROR]: Your autotools build scripts are 200 lines longer than your program. Something’s wrong. http://kirbyfan64.github.io/ On Aug 8, 2016 1:06 PM, "Guido van Rossum" <guido@python.org> wrote:

Word of warning: This is likely to be a controversial topic. Whoever takes this on can expect to receive several hundred emails on the subject, and will need to hash out the important details in the PEP, keeping everything that anyone will go looking for, but not letting the document get so long that people miss stuff, and include enough detail, but not too much, and basically be the Charlie that everyone complains to :) The PEP author is the central focus for all the discussion, and I predict a lot of discussion for this particular topic. Your next week or so will not have a great deal of sleep in it. That said, though: I strongly encourage you to take part. Just don't underestimate what you're taking on. ChrisA
