[issue8060] PEP 3101 string formatting missing engineering presentation type for floating point

[Eric V. Smith]

Eric V. Smith added the comment:

After discussing this with Mark at the sprints, I'm going to close this.

If someone comes up with a concrete proposal on python-ideas, we can revisit it. But as it is, there's not enough here to go on.

There are a sufficient number of ideas and alternatives that it might warrant a PEP to record all of the decisions and tradeoffs.

resolution:  -> rejected
