I've added a testing topic to the agenda. At the very least you could outline your streaming test result proposal, or kick off a meta discussion. We'll probably time limit the discussion so some specific focus will make it more productive - or maybe you can get a feel for how open to major changes in this area other python devs are.

May you do good and not evil
May you find forgiveness for yourself and forgive others
May you share freely, never taking more than you give.
