I would simply suggest that people who want to improve or fine-tune the PEP post pull requests for that (or contact the PEP's authors privately).

As for the other kinds of threads, as much as I dislike PEP 572, they are useless now.

Regards

Antoine.

Last week I proposed to create a mailing list dedicated to discuss only the PEP 572, but nobody reacted to my idea (on python-commiters). Then Guido van Rossum announced his intent to approve it. So I am not sure if a mailing list is still needed if the PEP will be approved soon.
