[New-bugs-announce] [issue15465] Improved documentation for C API version info

[Nick Coghlan]

New submission from Nick Coghlan <ncoghlan at gmail.com>:

As far as I can tell, the only mentions of the C API version macros are:

1. In the prose for the stable ABI section (incidentally: this section has a typo in the title)

2. In the documentation for sys.hexversion

There should be a clear "API and ABI Versioning" section in the C API docs that covers:

PY_LIMITED_API
PY_HEX_VERSION
PY_MAJOR_VERSION
PY_MINOR_VERSION
PY_MICRO_VERSION
PY_RELEASE_LEVEL
PY_RELEASE_SERIAL
