Research direction

Read PEP 830 and its Post-History, then review the linked Discuss announcement and the PEP's Open Issues and Rejected Ideas sections. Done means the Steering Council has considered the proposal and recorded its decision; this issue does not identify implementation files or tests.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

PEP

Please consider PEP 830 -- Add timestamps to exceptions and tracebacks ⏲️
https://peps.python.org/pep-0830/

  • The PEP has been discussed in threads listed in its Post-History header
    • I kept an "Open Issues" section in the PEP, but most of those are covered in detail in "Rejected Ideas" and more of a list of things most likely to be re-opened if you saw reason to disagree.
  • The PEP was announced on Discuss (link in Post-History)
  • The PEP includes all relevant Suggested Sections
  • The PEP has a CODEOWNERS entry
