That’s the right term. I wanted to discourage you from fruitless endeavors.

I don’t think there is a discrepancy between the core devs that want to
keep the power and do what they please, and the community that is never
consulted and unable to express itself. I believe that the core devs are
the first circle of the community and that they strive to make open
technical dicussions and reach decisions for the good of everyone. I
find them open and kind, even if sometimes necessarily stern (e.g. when
answering the same question for the umpteenth time).

And I would like to keep Python-related discussions on open official
fora that have been working for decades.

That paragraph was just me trying to be positive before expressing my
negative comments.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes. I have a handful of workflows in my belt to address different needs
(one-shot typo fix, feature development, local editions, etc.)

Done. I have read the hg book, information on the wiki, made a lot of
tests, read the PEPs, read the short hginit tutorial, and am willing to
review Python-centered docs.
