Yea this is essentially what I meant. We already have “unofficial” mirrors for PEPs and CPython itself on Github that are updated a few times a day. It wouldn’t be very difficult I think to make them official mirrors and update them immediately after a push. Then just some integration with Roundup would enable people to send PRs on Github. --- Donald Stufft PGP: 7C6B 7C5D 5E2B 6356 A926 F04F 6E3C BCE9 3372 DCFA _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
