Oh, I never said that.

I wrote "By the way, the decimal module doesn't support properly the following 
corner case: LC_NUMERIC using an encoding different than LC_CTYPE encoding. I 
wrote https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/5191 but I abandonned my change." 
as a reminder for myself. I found again the bug when I wrote my article, and I 
realized that I abandoned my PR when I had my burnout, and not because the fix 
was "officially" rejected.

So I opened this issue to get an official statement :-)

As I wrote in my PR, I'm not very happy of my proposed implementation. But 
let's discuss options to fix it :-)

I don't understand "I don't want to be involved in additional issue reports in 
that area". If the bug is fixed, why do you expect more bug reports? You wrote 
that nobody reported any issue related to formatting a decimal number using the 
locale since 2009.
