- optional signature annotations (but without type checking connotations); e.g. ``def foo(a: 42) -> "hello kitty": pass'' should be fine; see my Artima blogs I have been thinking about this one, especially after the discussions of the patch floating around that has an initial implementation. I was planning on tackling this at some point so it was nice and simple (just store strings instead of actual types so it truly just documentation initially) and tied into my signature PEP. Oops, I must have missed that there is a patch. Where?

I did post a patch... #1607548. I'd be grateful for some review. I've asked Colin Winter to be co-author of the PEP. I'll post a new
version of that in a couple of days when I have more downtime.

Thanks -Tony
