So the PEP submissions are in, and a few late ones will be submitted ASAP. Let me write up a capsule review of what we've got. Please let me know if I missed anything (e.g. a PEP that someone has committed to write but hasn't submitted yet). (1) The this* PEP was written and posted; I'll revise it slightly tonight. One benefit would be a minimal-change version of super.

I intend for the 'super' PEP to not rely on this in any way, but will add a note that your PEP (and other changes) may make the implementation simpler, and so the implementation should be revisited before 3.0.

The semantics of 'super' OTOH should be fully clarified in our PEP.
