[Python-Dev] PEP 506 secrets module

[Brett Cannon]

I noticed an article about default rand usage in Go
<http://blog.sgmansfield.com/2016/01/the-hidden-dangers-of-default-rand/>
from the Go Weekly newsletter and it reminded me about PEP 506 and the
secrets module. That's when I noticed that the PEP is still open. What is
the current blocker on the PEP?
