[New-bugs-announce] [issue14601] PEP sources not available as documented

[Jim Jewett]

New submission from Jim Jewett <jimjjewett at gmail.com>:

PEP 12 states:

"""
To get the source this (or any) PEP, look at the top of the HTML page and click on the date & time on the "Last-Modified" line. It is a link to the source text in the Python repository.
"""

Unfortunately, the link actually goes to SVN, which only works for (older copies of) older PEPs.

Following that link in a newer PEP returns a 404.
