This is mainly from memory so some of the details may be incorrect but it's 
pretty close. The Python docs on python.org come in various formats - on-line 
HTML and various downloadable formats - and in English as well as various 
translated versions. It takes multiple hours on a dedicated virtual server to 
build the complete set of doc products, so updates are done on different 
cycles. The complete set of document products in all languages for branches 
either in feature development (currently 3.11), pre-release (3.10), or bugfix 
(3.9) status, are built and published every 24 hours.  In addition, the on-line 
English html versions for these branches are re-built and published every 3 
hours. Docs for security-fix branches (3.8, 3.7, 3.6) are generally only 
re-built when new releases are made. We also produce archived copies of the 
documentation current as of each release (https://www.python.org/doc/versions/).

Julien Palard is the release team documentation expert who manages the doc 
build and translation processes, along with the PSF IT team headed by Ee 
Durbin. There is some information (not quite up-to-date) in the Dev Guide. The 
infrastructure code is primarily in https://github.com/python/docsbuild-scripts 
and https://github.com/python/psf-salt.
