 This PEP proposes to make argumentless lambda keyword optional in
 some cases where it is not grammatically ambiguous.
 
+Deferral
+
+ The BDFL hates the unary colon syntax. This PEP needs to go back
+ to the drawing board and find a more Pythonic syntax (perhaps an
+ alternative unary operator). See python-dev discussion on
+ 17 June 2005.
+
+ Also, it is probably a good idea to eliminate the alternative
+ propositions which have no chance at all. The examples section
+ is good and highlights the readability improvements. It would
+ carry more weight with additional examples and with real-world
+ referrents (instead of the abstracted dummy calls to :A and :B).
