+Pronouncement
+
+    This PEP is rejected.  There were a number of fixable issues with
+    the proposal (see the fixups listed in Raymond Hettinger's
+    python-dev post on 18 June 2005).  However, even with the fixups the
+    proposal did not garner support.  Specifically, Guido did not buy
+    the premise that the range() format needed fixing, "The whole point
+    (15 years ago) of range() was to *avoid* needing syntax to specify a
+    loop over numbers. I think it's worked out well and there's nothing
+    that needs to be fixed (except range() needs to become an interator,
+    which it will in Python 3.0)."
