I'm puzzled by this vote. I did not know that people took
random votes of Python developers in advance of a PEP. To
paraphrase the IETF: I don't believe in votes, just rough
consensus and running code.
If we are going to vote, please keep in mind the intended
meaning of votes:
+1, I endorse
0, I don't endorse
-1, I veto; this proposal will get in over my dead body
Don't veto unless you feel strongly. If you veto lots of
things, Guido might end up ignoring your vetos <wink>.
