Raymond Hettinger 294fd7ade7 Updated the PEP for GvR.
* Out of order evaluation is out of favor.
* So are ideas that do not provide for short-circuiting.
* (if <condition>: <expression1> else: <condition2>) is in vogue.
* <condition> ?? <expression1> || <expression2> is a new contender.
* cond(<condition>, <expression1>, <condition2>) is viable if implemented
      as a keyword and has short-circuit behavior.
* Added a summary of a few ideas from the last couple hundred posts
      from comp.lang.python.

reStructuredText for PEPs
=========================

Original PEP source may be written using two standard formats, a
mildly idiomatic plaintext format and the reStructuredText format
(also, technically plaintext).  These two formats are described in PEP
9 and PEP 12 respectively.  The pep2html.py processing and
installation script knows how to produce the HTML for either PEP
format.  A local copy of the Docutils package is included for
processing reStructuredText PEPs.

Please report any problems or questions to
docutils-develop@lists.sourceforge.net or to David Goodger
(goodger@python.org).
