Hi Victor,

I'd like to work on it if you accept "a random person" to work on it (saying it in case the mail was directed to core developers).

Regards, Mario

Hi,

In Februrary 2017, I proposed on python-ideas to change the Python syntax to allow to declare positional-only parameters in Python: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2017-February/044879.html https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2017-March/044956.html There are already supported at the C level, but not at the Python level. Our BDFL approved the idea: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2017-March/044959.html But I didn't find time to implement it. Does someone want to work on an implementation of the idea?
