    Reports from the Python Language Summit

    Description:
    The Python Software Foundation has published a
    set of reports from the 2024 Python Language summit. Topics covered
    include version numbering, the limited C API, a new default read-eval-print loop, and Python's security model in light of the XZ backdoor: For multiple reasons like being able to fix bugs and
    single-maintainer modules, CPython doesn't require reviewers on the
    pull requests of core developers. This can lead to "unilateral
    action", meaning that a change is introduced into CPython without
    the review of someone besides the author. Other situations like
    release managers backporting fixes to other branches without review
    are common.
