It would also be good if it said >(for transparency) how to go about seeing the current list of editors. IMO, becoming a PEP editor is by invitation-only, as decided by consensus of the current set of PEP editors. The current list of editors is exactly equivalent to the members of the peps@ mailing list, currently: Anthony Baxter Barry Warsaw Brett Cannon Georg Brandl David Goodger Guido van Rossum Jesse Noller If there are editors who are not members of this mailing list, they should be! If there are editors who want to retire and be removed from the list, please let me know. >There is also inconsistent singular/plural usage that I think would be good >to clear up. Currently, in many places PEP 1 says "the PEP editor" >(singular), so it's not clear if each PEP has its own editor, if there is a >single PEP editor for all PEPs at any one time, or if it simply means "the >PEP editor that happens to reply to an e-mail to p...@python.org". The latter, and it should be plural everywhere. >PEP 0 also has this issue because its introduction says, "[This] PEP contains >the index of all Python Enhancement Proposals, known as PEPs. PEP numbers >are assigned by the PEP Editor, and once assigned are never changed." Plural. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16581> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
