Just spent a couple hours debugging some code because the threading.Event.wait() documentation said it returned the internal flag when it always returns None. I just noticed that there is an addendum that says this was behavior that was changed in 2.7 but since these are the 2.6.5 docs it would be a lot less confusing if it first said that it always returns None and then said that in 2.7 it will return the internal flag.

Hi Andrew, thanks for the report; this is now fixed in the 2.6 docs. Apparently a bad merge was the reason for this to appear in the 2.6 docs. regards, Georg -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkv28gUACgkQN9GcIYhpnLBOXACgnClAoYC7E9y8j8DyfEmT8MU/ 6LoAn0DYTWS37MtEWh45ZTVDDcRp9c/W =NXXk -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
