Hi folks,

I wanted to push forward the consideration of introducing a simpler URLs 
syntax, plus support for URL parameter type conversion.

A pre-proposal is available here: 
https://gist.github.com/tomchristie/cb388f0f6a0dec931c611775f32c5f98

At this point I'm seeking feedback, before hopefully iterating on the 
proposal, and making a formal submission.

I'm not making any assumptions right now about where this might get too, or 
who'd be involved if it does make it to the DEP stage, and would very much 
welcome outside involvement. I'm also aware that while there's been some 
positive reception, it's not yet clear if we'll reach a consensus on 
inclusion in core.

Personally I'm very firmly +1 on this, as I feel that the existing syntax 
is a rather glaring and unnecessary pain point.

Thanks to everyone who's started to kick this off, in particular Emil 
Stenström for raising the original thread, and Sjoerd Job Postmus for their 
work on the Django Simple URL 
<https://github.com/sjoerdjob/django-simple-url> package.

  - Tom
