Hi all,

I've finally updated PEP 554.  Feedback would be most welcome.  The
PEP is in a pretty good place now and I hope to we're close to a
decision to accept it. :)

C-extension opt-in/opt-out
--------------------------

By using the ``PyModuleDef_Slot`` introduced by PEP 489, we could easily
add a mechanism by which C-extension modules could opt out of support
for subinterpreters.  Then the import machinery, when operating in
a subinterpreter, would need to check the module for support.  It would
raise an ImportError if unsupported. >
Alternately we could support opting in to subinterpreter support.
However, that would probably exclude many more modules (unnecessarily)
than the opt-out approach.

Currently it's already opt-in, as modules that use PyModuleDef are expected to support subinterpreters:
