Thanks Antoine, I was not aware of that or I had forgotten it. The old python.org/dev pages contained information for new and experienced core devs too, so I thought the devguide was intended to contain the same info. I’ll support a clearer separation between the guide and the reference, to make the devguide less overwhelming for new contributors but still complete for core devs. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13455> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
