[Python-Dev] A "day of silence" on PEP 572?

Last week I proposed to create a mailing list dedicated to discuss only the
PEP 572, but nobody reacted to my idea (on python-commiters). Then Guido
van Rossum announced his intent to approve it. So I am not sure if a
mailing list is still needed if the PEP will be approved soon.
