We should definitely update the docs, with `versionchanged`. But we should also update the PEP, because the reason this was changed was an interpretation issue in the PEP. This is different from simply changing things in a later version because we've come up with a new idea or we've learned that something was a bad idea. Now that the intention of the PEP has been clarified, the PEP itself ought to be updated with words expressing the clearer version; but because previously the intended syntax wasn't supported, it makes sense to also add a note there that this wasn't implemented correctly until 3.8. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35814> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
