+BDFL Pronouncement
+
+ This PEP is rejected. While the majority of Python users deemed this
+ to be a nice-to-have feature, the community was unable to reach a
+ concensus on whether nine should be represented as IX, the modern
+ form, or VIIII, the classic form. Likewise, no agreement was
+ reached on whether MXM or MCMXC would be considered a well-formed
+ representation of 1990. A vocal minority of users has also requested
+ support for lower-cased numerals for use in (i) powerpoint slides,
+ (ii) academic work, and (iii) Perl documentation.
