To clarify what will happen if I handle both jobs: I'll bug a few
specific people like Vinay Sajip (distlib), and MvL or Richard Jones
(PyPI) to at least glance over it, as well as giving distutils-sig,
catalog-sig and python-dev one last chance to comment on my revised
draft.

Then, wearing my BDFL-Delegate hat, I'd decide what feedback I
considered worth addressing and what could be safely ignored (or
postponed to the next time the metadata gets updated).

I don't expect anything I want to do to be particularly controversial,
but I think it's worth trying to get it right (even if it delays wheel
support in pip for a few more weeks).

Cheers,
Nick.
