Moving to Discourse

As mentioned previously [0], the Steering Council decided to switch from 
python-dev to Discourse (discuss.python.org).
We're aware that Discourse is not perfect. The previous mail thread [0] 
lists various shortcomings, as well as some workarounds. However, we 
don't see anything that would block Python development.

Practically, the switch means that:
- New PEPs should be announced in the PEPs category on Discourse (rather 
than on this list), and
- The Devguide will list Discourse, rather than mailing lists, as the 
primary communication channel.

Note that you can have development-related discussions anywhere, as long 
as you (eventually) include all relevant people. You're welcome to 
continue using python-dev and other mailing lists, IRC, in-person 
sprints, etc. But for PEP-level changes, we believe python-dev no longer 
reaches the proper audience.

For the related docs changes, see [peps-2775] and [devguide-945]. Note 
that this is documentation, not law – if something is unclear or doesn't 
make sense, please ask for clarification or propose edits.
