PEP 1 states that proposals must be sent to python-dev after discussion on
python-ideas. As for acceptance, PEP 1 says:
Once the authors have completed a PEP, they may request a review for
style and consistency from the PEP editors. However, the content and
final acceptance of the PEP must be requested of the BDFL, usually via
an email to the python-dev mailing list.
...
When a PEP is Accepted, Rejected or Withdrawn, the PEP should be updated
accordingly. In addition to updating the status field, at the very least
the Resolution header should be added with a link to the relevant post
in the python-dev mailing list archives.
So yes, python-dev needs to be the place where PEPs are discussed and
accepted.
