Description
Hello,
I'd like to propose updating PEP 11 to clarify unsupported platforms. Brett's summary of the proposal, with my addition:
- We have code for unsupported platforms and that’s OK, but it doesn’t imply any promises either.
- We welcome and encourage people that support CPython on other platforms – without promising any particular level of welcoming and encouragement.
Also:
- Add concrete rules for POSIX features (so we don't “over-fit” to Linux ∩ Mac ∩ BSD)
- Encourage listing “outsider” experts in the devguide, and pinging the experts
The proposal: https://github.com/encukou/peps/pull/3/files
