Guido van Rossum announced today that he is resigning from the position as the Python programming language's benevolent dictator for life. Like MV, it seems like he just simply had enough...........

Now that PEP 572 is done, I don't ever want to have to fight so hard for a
PEP and find that so many people despise my decisions.
I would like to remove myself entirely from the decision process. I'll
still be there for a while as an ordinary core dev, and I'll still be
available to mentor people -- possibly more available. But I'm basically
giving myself a permanent vacation from being BDFL, and you all will be on
your own.
After all that's eventually going to happen regardless -- there's still
that bus lurking around the corner, and I'm not getting younger... (I'll
spare you the list of medical issues.)
I am not going to appoint a successor.
So what are you all going to do? Create a democracy? Anarchy? A
dictatorship? A federation?
