True, a simple wiki page would probably be adequate - once we agree on the details, it can be added to the main Python 3 docs. Victor - the Python wiki is also one of the easiest places to work on early PEP drafts.

Isn't that method still there to allow other implementations to be more permissive about allowing the default encoding to be changed?
