Hi developers,
What should / shouldn't I do to attract any python developer response to
issue tracker items? I am unsure of the proper procedure to follow so I am
asking here first.
What you're doing here is probably your best bet. Unfortunately the lack of response might stem from no core devs being interested in curses (but if any are then hopefully this email will spark their interest).

I have filed two issues on the python issue tracker for python curses
issues:
1. # 43715, a documentation update request (suggested additional
documentation file uploaded)
2. # 43716, a possible ABI issue for the curses.pair_number() function
return value in a Windows environment
With respect to the documentation issue, I would appreciate any review of
whether the suggested documentation addition that I uploaded as a text file
is acceptable as-is or whether further refinement or correction is needed.
In the case of the possible ABI issue I am uncertain whether the issue is in
the python interface code or in the underlying curses implementation library
(windows-curses V2.2.0 using PDCurses). I would appreciate it if anyone
knowledgeable of the python curses interfacing code could advise me whether
I need to pursue the issue with the third party library provider or with the
python development team. At the moment all that I know is that the
"workaround" that I discovered corrects the issue under Windows but is not
necessary under linux / ncurses (in my testing I used Ubuntu 20.04 WSL2 to
confirm that fact).
TIA for your patience with my ignorance of the proper procedures and
channels.
My environment:
Windows 10 Pro 64 (latest version)
Python 3.8.9 (tags/v3.8.9:a743f81, Apr 6 2021, 14:02:34) [MSC v.1928 64 bit
(AMD64)]
Windows-curses V2.2.0
