Hm, making Christian the BDFL-delegate would mean two out of three authors and the BDFL-delegate all working for Red Hat, which clearly has a stake (and IIUC has already committed to this approach ahead of PEP approval). SO then it would look like this is just rubber-stamping Red Hat's internal decision process (if it's a process -- sounds more like an accident :-).

Can we try to get a vote from maintainers of the Python2/3 packages of other Linux distributions? Debian, Ubuntu, OpenSUSE, etc.?
