It's your bug tracker. This sort of statement that says that I should know exactly how you want bugs reported only serves to tell people like me not to even try. In addition, it's inaccurate in this case, as the title of the bug is that HTMLParser, which is a module in the standard library, needs a function documented. HTMLParser runs over HTML and calls internal functions when certain events occur. unknown_decl is called when an unknown declaration is found, and by default, it throws an exception. Thus, to correctly use HTMLParser, when subclassing it, you need to override unknown_decl if there are any unknown declarations in your HTML (or if you think there might be). > Preferably, indicate the specific section you want modified, by version, > number and name.

It's been almost 2 years since I submitted this bug. I don't know if it applies to Python 3, and at this point I find it difficult to care.
