We could proceed by consensus: the PEP author publicly proposes a PEP delegate, and if no core developer opposes, that person is officially accepted as delegate. Often PEP authors have a pretty good idea of who can be a delegate for a PEP. This is especially true on specialized topics which only a couple core devs are interested in discussing actively.
