I supported Barry's proposal. I can definitely understand   Łukasz's and
Antoine's stance here.  One of the important part of Barry's proposal was
removal of "for life" part.

Most of us are volunteers contributing to python. A leader with ultimate
say on language design, governance burden to steer the comittee is going to
be challenging and stressful for "anyone" in this model proposed by Barry.

Thank you,
Senthil
