I can verify that the files for 3.11.1 from the page at < https://docs.python.org/release/3.11.1/download.html> get a 404 response. On that page, the URL for the ePub version is: https://docs.python.org/ftp/python/doc/3.11.1/python-3.11.1-docs.epub The files from the file listing at < https://www.python.org/ftp/python/doc/3.11.1/> seem to work. On that page, the URL for the ePub version is: https://www.python.org/ftp/python/doc/3.11.1/python-3.11.1-docs.epub Note that the URL that works has a hostname of "www.python.org", and the broken one has "docs.python.org". I suspect that these two accidentally diverged at some point, and this needs to be escalated to the systems team maintaining the web site. --Paul Hoffman On Sun, Feb 12, 2023 at 1:36 PM Mark Reese wrote:

Hello, I was consulting the documentation section of the python site (for example https://docs.python.org/release/3.11.1/download.html) and when attempting to download the documentation for any file type of any version, it turns out none are available.

Where can I get the documentation for the versions I seek.

If you do not intend to host documentation on the site, there's no point in having such a section in the first place; it's important you remove it as it misleads visitors.
