I'm proud to announce that the PEP for Decimal Data Type is now published
under the python.org structure: 

	http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0327.html
	
This wouldn't has been possible without the help from Alex Martelli, Aahz,
Tim Peters, David Goodger and c.l.p itself.

After the pre-PEP roundups the features are almost established. There is not
agreement yet on how to create a Decimal from a float, in both explicit and
implicit constructions.

I depend on settle that to finish the test cases and actually start to work
on the code.

I'll apreciate any feedback. Thank you all in advance.
