I talked to a few core developers recently (at EuroPython and over
messengers) and I had an impression that some of them don't like an
idea of making a decision faster than everybody has a chance to say
their word.  Some of them are shy to publicly object to having strict
deadlines, some probably haven't yet seen this thread, some don't have
time to engage right now. You also see a few -1s in this very thread.
All in all, I really don't understand why we need to hurry here.

And maybe that's OK for a few months? I don't recall Guido ever
accepting PEPs promptly. :)  Setting strict deadlines really seems
like a last-resort option.

IIRC we always promoted core devs by popular vote, so I don't think
this would be a problem.  Do we have any candidates that are currently
waiting for us deciding on a governance model?
