Reports and celebrations

  • [Hugo] “Välkommen till Python! Detta är den officiella dokumentationen för Python 3.14.0.” https://docs.python.org/sv/3/ The Python docs are now available in Swedish! Thanks to Daniel Nylander!

Discussion

  • [Petr] Tutorial for C extensions

  • Sphinx 9 just came out. Probably not much relevant to CPython, the biggest change was in autodoc.

  • Changelog: should we split it up per release or per minor version?

  • In-progress rewrite of the devguide? Ned says he bit off more than he could chew.

    • [Hugo] Should we try merging stuff back, to be more incremental?

    • Let’s:

      • Rearrange the ToC (without touching the URL/filesystem structure yet)

      • Add stub pages for things we want

      • Rename to something like Python Contribution Guide

      • Remove the draft tree
