I don't propose to remove IDLE from the stdlib, just move the code to
another repository to allow to maintain it more easily. And then
re-add IDLE to the stdlib at each Python release.

We might also release IDLE more frequently using an external repository.

Oh sorry, I missed this PEP. I will read it.
