Hi Marko

Thank you for introducing yourself, and clearly stating your question.
That helps us all. You asked:

> Could somebody update me on the state of the discussion on this matter?

I think bring the existing PEP up to date would be a good starting
point. Its content hasn't been changed since 2003 (except for PEP-wide
admin changes. (Recall that Python 3.0 was released in 2008.)

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0316/
https://github.com/python/peps/commits/master/pep-0316.txt

In fact, revising the PEP might be enough to answer your question.
What do you think, Marko?

Experts: is there a process for revising old PEPs, such as this one?
Or at least a precedent we could follow (or adapt)?
