I'm ready to accept this PEP. Because I haven't read this entire thread (and 60 messages about random diversions is really too much to try and catch up on) I'll give people 24 hours to remind me of outstanding rejections.

I also haven't reviewed the code in any detail, but I believe the code review is going well, so I'm not concerned that the PEP would have to revised based on that alone.

There are a couple of outstanding issues that I am aware of, but I don't believe that either of these affect acceptance/rejection of the PEP. Please correct me if I am wrong.

  1. Implementation details of the statistics.sum function. Oscar is giving me a lot of very valuable assistance speeding up the implementation of sum.

  2. The current implementation has extensive docstrings, but will also need a separate statistics.rst file.

I don't recall any other outstanding issues, if I have forgotten any, please remind me.
