I'm not sure that it matters. PEP 3099 states a number of changes that were not going to happen in Python 3000, which we now know as Python 3.0. That's still true even if Python 3.8 gains a feature. (Though most of the rejected proposals are sufficiently backward-incompatible that they're almost certainly going to remain rejected.)
