[Doc-SIG] PEP 258

[Greg Scaffidi]

Hello,

I am working on a project for my Masters' Verification & Validation class.  The 
topic of the project is to explore the possibilities of implementing a modeling 
language for Python that supports Design-by-Contract and Unit-testing.  In my 
research, I came across the Docutils project.  I was wondering why the project 
was rejected from the PEP.  I also noticed that the Docstring Processing System 
Framework (PEP-256), was also rejected.  The reason given for the rejection of 
PEP-256 is that, "Proposal seems to have run out of steam."  Since PEP-256 
serves as a, "Rationale" for PEP-258, I was also wondering if PEP-258 was 
rejected for the same reason.  Both projects seem like worthy pursuits.  What 
other reasons, if any, are there for rejecting them?

Thank you very much for your help.

Sincerely

- Greg Scaffidi
