What we need (and hope through some miracle to have the time for) a doc that explains the steps needed to report a bug/submit a patch (basically the issue lifecycle) and how to propose a new language feature. That would clean up the dev FAQ into basically being a svn FAQ, and then give us docs to point people to when they ask how they can contribute. -Brett _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
