      recommended to put the PEP in the public domain.
  
!     When referencing an external web page in the body of a PEP, you
!     should include the title of the page in the text, with a
!     footnote reference to the URL.  Do not include the URL in the body
!     text of the PEP.  E.g.
  
+         Refer to the Python Language web site [1] for more details.
+         ...
+         [1] http://www.python.org
  
+     When referring to another PEP, include the PEP number in the body
+     text, such as "PEP 1".  The title may optionally appear.  Add a
+     footnote reference that includes the PEP's title and author.  It
+     may optionally include the explicit URL on a separate line, but
+     only in the References section.  Note that the pep2html.py script
+     will calculate URLs automatically, e.g.:
+ 
+             ...
+             Refer to PEP 1 [7] for more information about PEP style
+             ...

+ 
+     If you decide to provide an explicit URL for a PEP, please use
+     this as the URL template:
+ 
+         http://www.python.org/peps/pep-xxxx.html
+ 
+     PEP numbers in URLs must be padded with zeros from the left, so as
+     to be exactly 4 characters wide, however PEP numbers in text are
+     never padded.

+ 
+ Reporting PEP Bugs, or Submitting PEP Updates
+ 
+     Please use the SourceForge bug manager[6] if you want to report
+     problems with PEPs, or better yet, the SourceForge patch
+     manager[2] for submitting patches to PEPs.
