Note that http://www.python.org/patches/ has some material on patch processing that also belongs in /dev/.
I check all the links on ../dev/ I noticed and found no direct link to /patches/. I think there should be (Explanations list, bottom of page) The /devfaq/ has this entry: 3.2. How to submit a patch? Please read the Patch Submission Guidelines at http://www.python.org/patches A recent copy can be found in the Appendix of this FAQ. Q. Which of these two nearly identical pages is more recent? Guess:Appendix A2 has "It's almost a year since Python 1.5.2 was released". /patches/ is undated (dating pages in one change I would suggest for the site) but the differences suggest to me that it is newer. Please delete the older version. Directing would-be new submitters to both seems senseless and can only discourage, not encourage. Terry J. Reedy cc webmaster@python.org
