Thanks Yury! I am hereby accepting PEP 525 provisionally. The acceptance is so that you can go ahead and merge this into 3.6 before the feature freeze this weekend. The provisional status is because this is a big project and it's likely that we'll need to tweak some small aspect of the API once the code is in, even after 3.6.0 is out. (Similar to the way PEP 492, async/await, was accepted provisionally.) But I am cautiously optimistic and I am grateful to Yury for the care and effort he has put into it.
