It's probably appropriate, once a PEP is accepted, implemented, and documented, to include a link from the PEP to the definitive documentation. That could be done in lieu of keeping the PEP strictly in sync as the feature changes. >The history of decision changes is tracked in VCS, if that is desirable. Not just desirable, an explicit purpose of PEPs! :) https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0001/ Cheers, -Barry
