Congratulations! This is definitely a big step for array-computing with Python. Working with the Python devs to implement a PEP can be a tremendous opportunity to increase your programming awareness and ability --- as well as make some good friends.
This is a great way to get involved with both Python and the NumPy community and have a big impact. If you are in a position to devote several hours a week to the task, then you won't find a better opportunity to contribute.
