I still would like to see Nick's class-based API preferred over the
functional API:

   class Season(Enum, members='spring summer autumn'):
      pass

The PEP doesn't even mention it, even though you got significant
pushback on the proposed _getframe() hack for pickling (including
mentions that IronPython and Cython may not support it), and nobody
seemed to be unhappy with the class-based proposal.

Regards

Antoine.
