It *should* be being kept in sync with the published versions, but Donald
and I have just been working directly in the main PEP repo recently.

Hence my suggestion of moving it to GitHub - it's more likely to be kept up
to date there, and, unlike the master PEP repo, I'm happy to host the
working drafts and issue tracker for the metadata PEPs wherever folks find
them most convenient to work with.

Cheers,
Nick.
