Please don't give people the idea that there is any current intention to

Python 4000', if you must use such a term.


I prefer to say Python 5000, to make it even more clear that should such
a thing happen again, it will be a *REALLY* long time from now.

I think that Python 5000 would be more to do with an internal change, 
such as going GIL-less, than a change in, say, syntax.
