+BDFL Pronouncement
+
+ This PEP was rejected on 17 June 2005 with a note to python-dev.
+
+ Much of the original need was met by the enumerate() function which
+ was accepted for Python 2.3.
+
+ Also, the proposal both allowed and encouraged misuses such as:
+
+ >>> for i in 3: print i
+ 0
+ 1
+ 2
+
+ Likewise, it was not helpful that the proposal would disable the
+ syntax error in statements like:
+
+ x, = 1
