New submission from INADA Naoki <songofacandy(a)gmail.com>: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/docs/2018-October/037913.html Dead URL: http://pypi.org/project/Twisted/json Valid URL: https://pypi.org/pypi/Twisted/json But JSON returned by the valid URL seems too long for the example. Is there a better sample JSON we can use in the example? ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 328517 nosy: docs@python, inada.naoki priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Doc: pprint example uses dead URL versions: Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report(a)bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35075> _______________________________________
