[issue13122] Out of date links in the sidebar of the documentation index of versions 3.1 and 3.2

Irit Katriel  added the comment:

This is still unresolved. For instance, this says 3.7 is in development:
https://docs.python.org/release/3.6.2/

'All Releases' rather than 'Everything else' is both more accurate and to me, 
more graceful.

[issue13122] Out of date links in the sidebar of the documentation index of versions 3.1 and 3.2

[Sandro Tosi]

Sandro Tosi sandro.t...@gmail.com added the comment:

Hi all, how can we fix it? or better, should we fix it? From a user POV, it is 
a weird to see 3.1 doc referring to 3.2 doc as in development then clicking 
on that link, being redirect to 3.3a0 doc and see there that 3.2 is stable 
(with no reference back to 3.1).

Maybe we can adjust the sidebar in 3.1 references and do a manual rebuild or 
just wait for another security release? maybe we can discuss a policy for such 
things and write it in stone (aka devguide).

Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu added the comment:

http://docs.python.org/release/2.6.7/
has the same problem that the 3.x 'in development' version is called 3.2, while 
there is no link to current stable 3.2.2 except indirectly by going to 'old 
versions' (which perhaps should be 'other versions'). I do not know enough 
about frames to know how to future-proof the sidebar better.

 Nobody said 3.2 was not stable...

Well, the sidebar says it's in development while 2.7 is stable :)

Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu added the comment:

Well, actually I do have an idea. When 3.3 comes out, I think docs.python.org 
should point to that, and another url should point to the most recent 2.7.x 
release. The url for all versions is already stable. Then the sidebar could 
have entries for most recent 3.x and 2.x releases (without specifying) and 
other versions.

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu added the comment:

My specific suggestion is that the sidebar be time-independent (for at least a 
decade, until Python 4 ;-) and say

Docs for other versions
  Current Python 3
  Current Python 2
  In development
  Everything else

with stable links for each.

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu added the comment:

To make my idea work both now and after we switch docs.python.org, that url 
should not be used as either of the first two links. Rather there should be a 
docs.python.org/py2k (or whatever) that is the permanent 'latest Python 2 
release' docs link.

[issue13122] Out of date links in the sidebar of the documentation index of versions 3.1 and 3.2

[Sven Marnach]

New submission from Sven Marnach s...@marnach.net:

The sidebar on http://docs.python.org/release/3.1.3/ names 3.2 as the 
development version of Python, while the link points to 3.3.  The sidebar on 
http://docs.python.org/py3k/ links to 3.1 as the stable version -- obviously 
a relict from the time when 3.2 was in development.  (This could be fixed in 
Doc/tools/sphinxext/indexsidebar.html of the respective branches.)

Ezio Melotti ezio.melo...@gmail.com added the comment:

AFAIK the doc for 3.1 is not rebuilt anymore, so even if it's fixed, the change 
won't have any visible effect -- unless someone manually triggers a rebuild.
Regarding the 3.1 link on the py3k page: I think 'stable' still applies, even 
if it only receives security fixes.

Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu added the comment:

I disagree about 3.2 not being 'stable'. With more bugs fixes, it should be 
more stable. People should be encouraged to download 3.2. 2.7 came out 8 months 
before, and that should be updated (and again when 3.3 comes out).
