ok, first of all, fair enough, but I do think there should be some recognition of the PEP's role in the wider community as a general style guide for all code written in python. second, you've snipped the entire rest of my post rather than engage with it, and the main point I was making is no less relevant to the standard library, so I will repeat it: If the dialect someone wishes to write their comments in is mutually intelligible with "standard" (however defined) English there's no real need to enforce a higher degree of conformity beyond that. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/FA4JMJTR7V745KGMTDK44GUBPE2HNP3V/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
