[Python-Dev] Draft PEP: "Simplified Package Layout and Partitioning"

[Barry Warsaw]

First off, kudos to PJE for his work on this PEP.  He really had the key
insight for this new approach, and did a great job of explaining his vision in
a clear way so that I think everybody over on import-sig "got it".

Great question.  I don't know if we want/need to make the distinction any
more.  It does feel a little odd putting Python 3 PEPs (the only kind of new
Standards Track PEPs) in the 0XXX numbers, but now that we're all moving to
Python 3 <wink>, it seems like segregating new PEPs to the 3XXX range is a bit
contrived.

I think filling up 0XXX is probably fine.
