What Skip said. For a topic generating this much heat, volunteers have
been thin on the ground.

In case it's not clear - there is an _enormous_ amount of work that
could be put into the PEP. Collecting posts from the 2+ years that
this topic was active on python-dev is a mammoth task. It's also
something that parallelises well. Please, if you care about this (and
it's obvious from the volume of posts that lots of people do), spend
a bit of time adding entries to the wiki. References to python-dev
posts from the archives, in particular, are _very_ nice.

I have a crapload of other things I'd much prefer to be working on,
and help would be _much_ appreciated.

Anthony
