I'm not anticipating much discussion on this, but wanted to present a summary of my notes from the project I proposed last year and have since tabled.

Thanks for that update.

For the PEP 432 start-up changes, the draft implementation reached a point earlier this year where it aligns with the current PEP draft and works as intended, except for the fact that most config settings aren't actually using the new structs yet: https://bitbucket.org/ncoghlan/cpython_sandbox/branch/pep432_modular_bootstrap

However, there were other things that seemed higher priority to work on or help coordinate, so I deferred actually wrangling the process of proposing it for inclusion as a private API and then incrementally migrating settings over to it (particular as I think there's a high chance of that migration process stalling out if I can't be sure I'll have time to work on it myself).

Cheers, Nick.
