This issue here describes everything I found in the datetime package. Line numbers in this issue apply to the datetime.rst file as of commit 96a98bcaac70 (https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/… [View More]

Submitting an article/paper on CPython's Private Heap
by J.E. Ogden April 1, 2016

April 1, 2016

Recently I had to dig into cpython's private memory heap (there wasn't much current, detailed information I could find outside of the the source) and decided to put what I learned into an article/paper on the topic. I was wondering: a) where's the appropriate place to contribute it, and b) could someone with cpython development experience proof/review it? (Because it has a number of diagrams, formated text, footnotes etc. it's currently only presentable in pdf format.) thanks, jon
