For the benefit of folks that weren't following the (many) iterations on python-ideas: PEP 501's general purpose string interpolation started out as a competitor to 498, but as the discussion continued and my ideas started to converge more and more with Eric's, I eventually realised it made more sense as an optional extension to PEP 498 that exposed the inner workings of the scope aware interpolation machinery to Python code. As part of that, I'm +1 on PEP 498's literal string interpolation syntax.
