During the Steering Committee presentation at PyCon, it was mentioned that no one has formally proposed TOML be added to the standard library (emphasis on formal). THe joke went forth that there would be a flood of proposals to that end.
So, just to kick this off while the thought is still fresh in a bunch of people's minds: **should we add a TOML parser to the standard library**? The main reason this matters is to help encourage adoption of the now PEP-standardized pyproject.toml. A few projects have cited the lack of a standardized TOML implementation in the standard library as a reason not to adopt pyproject.toml...and the topic thus became weirdly political. I understand that Brett Cannon intends to bring this up at the next language summit, but, ah, might as well put the community two-cents in now, hey? I, for one, feel like this is obvious. -- Jason C.
