Hello,

I've often read new PEP that are published, and they are often about new additions to the core language. Why not using them with the standard library.

Guido often say that he don't want to include new module that aren't widely used in the community. It's a good thing, but it lead to the creation of a lot of API incompatible modules. Why not using PEP in order to create standard API like the Java world do with JSRs (Java Specification Requests) ?

What do you think about that ?
