First, we feel that it is time to convert PEPs (proposals) to specifications. We're getting to the point where we might refer to a feature as “PEP 589 as amended by PEP 655”. To understand a feature, users (and implementers of typing tools) must read through proposal documents that contain motivation, discussion, and sometimes even information that's obsolete today. The use of PEP numbers in everyday communication makes the field even less accessible to outsiders. The Python Packaging Authority (PyPA) used to be in a similar situation, and moved to a model of [specifications], which contain current information, and PEPs as change proposals, which contain a summary of each change and the reasoning (motivation, rationale, discussion summary) for each change. The work of converting existing PEPs to spec documents is not done, but the eventual goal is clear. We ask you to consider adopting a similar model.

For reference, https://typing.readthedocs.io (source at https://github.com/python/typing) is supposed to become a central repository for typing-related documentation and would be the natural place for such specifications. - Sebastian
