You made a fine case for that a single dictator is the best possible approach, for much the same reasons Emacs is the best possible editor. +1 Brett Cannon Not my first choice, but ... yup, I got the email back. Kim Jong Un is too busy providing field guidance to potato farms and trolley manufacturers this year :-( So that leaves Brett! However, to secure my full enthusiastic support he'll first need to pledge to make porting Python to Red Star OS[1] his #1 BDFL priority. Since a committee or a (ugh!) democracy would never do that, it would prove he has the pigheadedness required to be an effective dictator ;-) [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Star_OS
