New submission from James O: PEP 420 says "Allowing implicit namespace packages means that the requirement to provide an __init__.py file can be dropped completely..." (as described here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37139786/is-init-py-not-required-for-pack...) The documentation for modules <https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/modules.html> doesn't seem to reflect this change. My "enhancement suggestion" is that a sentence (and perhaps an example) be added that explicitly states or shows an import from another directory. (P.S. This is my first Python bug submission, so if it's silly, let me know. Thanks!) ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 288932 nosy: James O, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Python 3 Module doc still sounds like __init__.py is required type: enhancement versions: Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29716> _______________________________________
