Approval Process
================

As the application of this policy has potential legal ramifications for the
Python Software Foundation, the approval process used is more formal than that
used for most PEPs.

recommend its acceptance to the PSF's Packaging Working Group. After
consultation with the PSF's General Counsel, adoption of the policy will then
be subject to a formal vote within the working group.

This formal approval process will be used for both initial adoption of the
policy, and for adoption of any future amendments.
