Aye, and I had already taken on that role unofficially - IIRC, the
only major change I requested was the one to allow buffer handling
callbacks to ask the pickler to include the buffer in-line after all
[1].

It was just that the BDFL-Delegate appointment process was put on hold
after Guido stepped down.

Cheers,
