I have not said anything on this topic either way. But I think a general moratorium is a false solution to that particular problem. Guido should just make a clear pronouncement (again) and let people quote that in response to initial posts, before they *appear* to gain steam. Each time Python doubles in popularity, the number of people wanting such things will approximately double. That is the price of success.
