You and the other people who work on the releases deserve a lot of credit. For myself, I'm glad that there's a place where it's possible to get the attention of the platform experts because very occasionally a platform issue comes up. For example, a month ago we got a question over on the python-help list about Python for Windows on ARM and it was a little trouble tracking down someone who could answer it. (In case anyone's curious: Python for Windows on ARM isn't on Microsoft's store because few binary modules are compiled for it and Microsoft doesn't want users to be mad and/or confused when, for example, "pip install pandas" doesn't work for it.) That said, I don't much mind whether that place is here on this list or over on a section of the PSF's web board. I tend to like mailing lists a little more, but that's a very minor thing.
