\*Not\* adapting the PEP will also make CPython and IronPython
incompatible, and there's no way to fix that.

CPython and IronPython are incompatible.� And they will stay incompatible if the PEP is adopted.

They would become compatible if CPython adopted Mono and/or Java semantics.�

Since both have had to deal with this, have you looked at what they actually do before proposing PEP 383?� What did you find?� Why did you choose an incompatible approach for PEP 383?
