Steven, I'd like to just approve the PEP, given the amount of discussion that's happened already (though I didn't follow much of it). I quickly glanced through the PEP and didn't find anything I'd personally object to, but then I found your section of open issues, and I realized that you don't actually specify the proposed API in the PEP itself. It's highly unusual to approve a PEP that doesn't contain a specification. What did I miss?

I'd like to get some attention for this please.

I think that PEP 450 is now ready for a PEP dictator. There have been a number of code reviews, and feedback has been taken into account. The test suite passes. I'm not aware of any unanswered issues with the code. At least two people other than myself think that the implementation is ready for a dictator, and nobody has objected. There is still on-going work on speeding up the implementation for the statistics.sum function, but that will not effect the interface or the substantially change the test suite. http://bugs.python.org/issue18606 http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0450/
