Pronouncement
In commenting on PEP 279's enumerate() function, this PEP's author
offered, "I'm quite happy to have it make PEP 281 obsolete."
Subsequently, PEP 279 was accepted into Python 2.3.
On 17 June 2005, the BDFL concurred with it being obsolete and
hereby rejected the PEP. For the record, he found some of the
examples to somewhat jarring in appearance:
>>> range(range(5), range(10), range(2))
[5, 7, 9]
