Good question, the only answer we have right now revolves around changing the MEP number at merge time into trunk.  If changing the MEP number exists as the only thing left to do, then it will get merged straight away, easy, so no having to come back to change it a 2nd time.

Thanks Thomas.

Just realized I've an old MEP (MEP28 https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/4384), should I create a MEP29 instead ? How do I know if someone else is already working on a different MEP 29 ?

It's far from complete but I would like to know if there's any interest in that and if it's worth making a MEP (and if yes, could someone remind me the procedure for doing that ?).
