Hello,

I've often read new PEP that are published, and they are often about new 
additions to the core language. Why not using them with the standard 
library.

Guido often say that he don't want to include new module that aren't 
widely used in the community. It's a good thing, but it lead to the 
creation of a lot of API incompatible modules. Why not using PEP in 
order to create standard API like the Java world do with JSRs (Java 
Specification Requests) ?

What do you think about that ?
