[Python-Dev] PEP 345 and PEP 386

[Guido van Rossum]

All,

I've reviewed PEP 345 and PEP 386 and am satisfied that after some
small improvements they will be accepted. Most of the discussion has
already taken place.

I have one comment on PEP 345: Why is author-email mandatory? I'm sure
there are plenty of cases where either the author doesn't want their
email address published, or their last know email address is no longer
valid. (Tarek responded off-line that it isn't all that mandatory; I
propose to say so in the PEP.)

I am also looking at PEP 376 but I expect that Tarek will start
another round of discussion on it. Hopefully all three PEPs will be
accepted in time for inclusion in Python 2.7.
