The thread about bytes() is about a Python 3.0 feature. Guido's presentations have mentioned various changes he'd like to make in 3.0, but there's no master list of things that would change. I think it would be useful to have such a list, because it would focus our language development effort on ones that are steps to 3.0, and maybe people can invent ways to smooth the transition. I've started a list in the Wiki at http://www.python.org/moin/Python3.0 , but should it be a PEP? (PEP 3000, perhaps?)

I say a PEP. While it can say that these features are just possibilities, I would rather have a controlled place to list this stuff so it is a little more official than having someone randomly come in and start throwing in everything they wished Python 3.0 will have.

And I forgot to mention I would like to help out with this.
