Anyway, I'm *not* trying to discourage you, just explain some of the
roadblocks to acceptance that likely are why it hasn't already happened.
If you're serious about pushing this through, you have two options:
* Write the code and corresponding PEP yourself (which leads to the
second option, anyway)
* Lobby on the python-ideas mailing list
Currently I don't have a strong need for this. I just believe it would
be a benefit to a language I like a lot. Lobbying isn't my thing. I'd
rather write code, but neither am I the most qualified person for the
job. It would certainly be interesting and fun and challenging in a
good way and a great way to learn some new stuff. But I would
definitely need mentoring or asking some silly questions on the
mailing list. Maybe I'll seriously consider it some other time.
There's also another issue raise by Paul Rubin I wasn't even aware of,
that the LGPL is not suitable for the standard library. Having to write
a complete BST implementation in C is a drag. There are already good C
libraries available.
