Thanks!

I'll go ahead and point Ethan to the dev guide, so he'll send his SSH keys
to the appropriate place. Naturally I'm volunteering to mentor him in the
initial work he'll be doing as a Python core developer. We'll start with
getting an enum implementation committed (issue 17947). Since the
implementation will almost certainly be based in large parts on Ethan's
ref435 code, I think it's fair to let him commit that once it goes through
a review.

P.S. code review of on issue 17947 will be very much appreciated!

Eli
