Both the RM and BDFL agree that Python 3.2b1 should be held up until we settle this wsgi matter. That makes it a question of how to settle it.

Thinking out loud here to keep this discussion focused, I say we give a deadline for PEPs to be submitted by October 15th. We then choose two PEP dictators to make a call by November 1, get wsgiref cleaned up ASAP, and get Python 3.2b1 out the door immediately thereafter. If web-sig manages to come to an agreement as a whole before then we can skip the PEPs, but if they have not managed to do this already then it probably is not going to suddenly happen now under threat of python-dev making the call for them by blessing a new wsgiref implementation (happy to be proven wrong, though).

FWIW, I've submitted http://github.com/mcdonc/web3/blob/master/web3.rst as a PEP (by sending a mail to peps at python.org).
