PEP 684 -- A Per-Interpreter GIL

[ericsnowcurrently]

Please consider PEP 684 -- A Per-Interpreter GIL
https://peps.python.org/pep-0684/

• The PEP has been discussed in threads listed in its Post-History header
• The PEP was announced on Discuss (link in Post-History)
• The PEP includes all relevant Suggested Sections
• The PEP includes endorsements from the projects/groups/people it helps
• The PEP has a CODEOWNERS entry

SIG-specific:

• typing-sig PEPs: link to Guido/Jelle's confirmation that the PEP captures typing-sig discussions/consensus:
• Packaging PEPs: don't file the issue here, ask the delegate (Paul Moore) on Packaging Discourse

The last round of discussion resulted in almost no changes to the PEP, which I'll take as an indication that the PEP is ready. However, I'm open to further discussion if you have any lingering concerns. (FWIW, my understanding is that there isn't much controversy with this proposal.)

Also, FYI, I'm still tracking the remaining work here. That page is mostly up-to-date (and I'll be revisiting it in the next few days). The remaining work is manageable for 3.12 and more so with others chipping in (which I anticipate is likely to happen).
