PEP
Python Enhancement Proposal. A PEP is a design document
providing information to the Python community, or describing a new
feature for Python or its processes or environment. PEPs should
provide a concise technical specification and a rationale for proposed
features.

PEPs are intended to be the primary mechanisms for proposing major new
features, for collecting community input on an issue, and for documenting
the design decisions that have gone into Python. The PEP author is
responsible for building consensus within the community and documenting
dissenting opinions.

See :pep:`1`.

portion
A set of files in a single directory (possibly stored in a zip file)
that contribute to a namespace package, as defined in :pep:`420`.
