These will all go to the Python Packaging Council to decide on now.

x-ref python/steering-council#368, which has verbal agreement and is mostly waiting on a round of reviews.

And we have this in PEP 1 about delegation, including the Typing Council.

Let's add the PPC bit? (In this PR or another)

The final authority for PEP approval is the Steering Council. However, whenever a new PEP is put forward, any core developer who believes they are suitably experienced to make the final decision on that PEP may offer to serve as its PEP-Delegate by notifying the Steering Council of their intent. If the Steering Council approves their offer, the PEP-Delegate will then have the authority to approve or reject that PEP. For PEPs related to the Python type system, the Typing Council (PEP 729) provides a recommendation to the Steering Council. To request such a recommendation, open an issue on the Typing Council issue tracker.

I can't find a nice coming soon meme to share along with a link to python/steering-council#368 (comment) regarding PEP 1! 😅

(it'll be a separate PR)

I'll go ahead and merge, as I don't expect any objections from the former PEP delegates.
