[Python-Dev] A "day of silence" on PEP 572?

[Antoine Pitrou]

I would simply suggest that people who want to improve or fine-tune the
PEP post pull requests for that (or contact the PEP's authors
privately).

As for the other kinds of threads, as much as I dislike PEP 572, they
are useless now.

Regards

Antoine.
