[New-bugs-announce] [issue28172] Upper-case all example enum members

[Chris Angelico]

New submission from Chris Angelico:

Discussion on python-ideas led to a firm ruling by Guido that enum members are functionally equivalent to constants, and should thus be named in upper-case. This is contrary to the current documentation. Solution? Change the docs.
