PEP 8016 — The Steering Council Model | Python.org
▻https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-8016
This PEP proposes a model of Python governance based around a steering council. The council has broad authority, which they seek to exercise as rarely as possible; instead, they use this power to establish standard processes, like those proposed in the other 801x-series PEPs. This follows the general philosophy that it’s better to split up large changes into a series of small changes that can be reviewed independently: instead of trying to do everything in one PEP, we focus on providing a minimal-but-solid foundation for further governance decisions.

* C’est de l’humour d’informaticien mais avec un fond de vérité, et comme tout leadership de fondateur cela finit par s’avérer plus ou moins toxique.
