Potential topics include (some of which partially overlap each other): * Clarifying the deprecation process of modules including whether we will *ever* remove deprecated modules * Breaking the standard library into a separate development repository (which we decided to do at the last language summit but haven't yet - several developers are still keen to do this) * Deprecating and removing more obsolete / unmaintained modules (I believe a new PEP on this will be coming soon) * The goals of the standard library - some people want a 'dead' standard library (as in dead-stable) others want to see an actively improving standard library * Bringing new best-of-breed modules into the standard library (and what to when they fully or partly duplicate existing functionality) All the best, Michael > Feel free to raise discussions on other lists such as jython-dev, > catalog-sig, or wherever, but please summarize the results here on > python-dev; I won't see discussions on other lists. > > Like last time, invitations will be sent to the committers for Python, > Jython, IronPython, PyPy, Pynie, plus a few extra people and projects. > If you want to suggest another project or person who should be > invited, please send me a private e-mail. > > > Andrew M.
