These PEP threads are enough.. Let's *not* have a long discussion
about the pro and cons of case sensitivity. We already did that
back in 2000..
If I really wanted to stir up comp.lang.python I could pretend to be
Guido and post a PEP about making Python case insensitive. I'd ask
people to debate it, come up with alternate proposals, work out
a voting procedure and count the votes. :)
