FWIW, I've always considered PEP 101 a checklist of things the RM has to do when making a release. That's the way I originally wrote and used it, and for me, with just one more release ahead of me (and a source-only one at that) for the foreseeable future, it's worked moderately well. So IMHO, now that Larry is taking over, my suggestion is for him to view PEP 101 as the collective "wisdom" of those RMs who have gone before him. But he should feel free to make the document more useful for him, of course in consultation with the other active RMs. I certainly have no problem with each RM putting their stamp on the document, including adding their names to the Author field. (Same general principle as with the release.py script too.) -Barry _______________________________________________ python-committers mailing list python-committers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-committers
