[Python-Dev] Decimal floats as default (was: discussionaboutPEP239 and 240)

> Should I write a PEP?

No.  Just let it evolve naturally.

The next step is for a builtin C version.  That will likely happen as
soon as one of us has the time and inclination to write it.

If that works out well, then writing decimal literals like 123d may be
plausible.

And, if that works out well too, then there would be some basis for
Py3.0 using decimal as the default float.
