[Python-Dev] Python 3.8 alpha and AIX buildbot “support” moving forward.
Congratulations on the official begin of the alpha phase of Python3-3.8. I hope there will be time to consider three of my PRs so that this phase has at least one of the AIX buildbots (not mine I fear) is passing all the tests and can finally serve it’s real purpose and signal when a change toggles it’s status from PASS to FAIL. Next week I hope to have some time to dig deeper and try to establish why my bot fails additional tests (in the multiprocessing module(s)) as well why AIX fails test_bdb when utf8 support is (additionally) installed but passes when utf8 support is not installed. While I am also concerned about AIX status I also hope that my inspection is helping to improve Python.

Re: [Python-Dev] make patchcheck and git path
When building out of tree there is no .git reference. If I understand the process it uses git to see what files have changed, and does further processing on those. As to workflow, that may be better, but other than the name, unknown to me.
