[New-bugs-announce] [issue25594] enum docs outdated re attribute access

[SilentGhost]

New submission from SilentGhost:

In enum docs[0], there is a suggestion that the attribute access on members should raise an AttributeError:

>>> Color.red.blue
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
AttributeError: 'Color' object has no attribute 'blue'

which is demonstrably wrong in either 3.5 or 3.6. I presume that's a doc issue and I'd be glad to propose the patch as soon as someone more familiar with the module could confirm that.
