Right now everything in typing.rst [1] applies to 3.9 as well as 3.10.

How about copying the typing.rst file to the 3.9 branch, so more
people would benefit from it sooner?


Doc improvements are routinely backported to versions they apply to, the 
same as with bugfixes.  Doing so is usually decided and done by the 
person merging to master.  The main reason not to do so is when there 
are major merge conflicts.


Doc changes show up online the next day.  I assume that the changes did 
not make the 3.9.0rc1 release ea rlier today.  Whether the release crew 
will update the offline docs included with Windows and Mac installers in 
.0rc2 and .0 is a separate issue from doing a backport.

Yeah, we should totally backport that PR. In fact, if you send me back the
PR, I'll add a "needs backport to 3.9" label to it and the automation
should take care of the rest.

Is there any reason it can't also be backported to 3.8?
