Python-dev is for concrete discussion of development of the next 
versions. Questions and speculative discussion should generally be 
directed to python-list and concrete proposals to python-ideas.

There have been posts on this subject on python-list and you can search 
the archive. That list is mirrored as newsgroup 
gmane.comp.python.general at news.gmane.org, which I believe has its own 
searchable archive.
