Another maybe valuable thing:

probably another useful heuristic to divided the open PEPs beyond proof-of-concept/no-proof-of-concept is new-syntax/new-keywords/new-"funny"-semantics/ non-backward compatible vs. infrastructure/library/etc/BDFL championed Those PEPs espacially make peope wonder: will that happen to my favorite language, oh god, when?, it seems real soon now - gulp, gasp.

Clearly my point is not against "disruptive" changes but about making clear for people what is ongoing-work-in-progress and what is still just undecided.

regarfs, Samuele Pedroni.
