 This PEP proposes an object representation for function signatures.
 This should help facilitate introspection on functions for various
-usese (e.g., decorators).  The introspection information contains all
+uses (e.g., decorators).  The introspection information contains all
 possible information about the parameters in a signature (including
 Python 3.0 features).
 
+This object, though, is not meant to replace existing ways of
+introspection on a function's signature.  The current solutions are

+proposed object representation is only meant to help make application
+code have an easier time to query a function on its signature.

+Remove ``has_*`` attributes?
+----------------------------
+
+If an EAFP approach to the API is taken, both ``has_annotation`` and
+``has_default`` are unneeded as the respective ``annotation`` and
+``default_value`` attributes are simply not set.  It's simply a
+question of whether to have a EAFP or LBYL interface.
+
+
+Have ``var_args`` and ``_var_kw_args`` default to ``None``?
+------------------------------------------------------------
+
+It has been suggested by Fred Drake that these two attributes have a
+value of ``None`` instead of empty strings when they do not exist.
+
+
+Deprecate ``inspect.getargspec()`` and ``.formatargspec()``?
+-------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Since the Signature object replicates the use of ``getargspec()``
+from the ``inspect`` module it might make sense to deprecate it in
+2.6.  ``formatargspec()`` could also go if Signature objects gained a
+__str__ representation.
+
+Issue with that is types such as ``int``, when used as annotations,
+do not lend themselves for output (e.g., ``"type 'int'>"`` is the
+string represenation for ``int``).  The repr representation of types
+would need to change in order to make this reasonable.
