Over the past week or so there have been 2 patches to add support for various UNIX OSs. Now I thought we had stopped trying to add new esoteric OSs (e.g. I had never heard of MirOS until the patch for it came in), but I can't find a PEP that spells out what it takes to get a platform supported ( http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0011/ is about removing platforms, not keeping them or adding them unless you are re-adding one which apparently just takes a volunteer).
Do we want an official policy written down in a PEP (yes, I can write it)? Should I keep closing these patches and saying that we are not adding support for new operating systems and be hand-wavy about it?
