[New-bugs-announce] [issue37809] Alias typing.NamedTuple to collections

[Steven D'Aprano]

New submission from Steven D'Aprano <steve+python at pearwood.info>:

As discussed in the thread starting here with Guido's message:

https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/WTBXYJJ7CSGDLLJHHPHSH5ZCCA4C7QEP/

and these two follow-ups:

https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/VRCH56CHE4P7IAWO7QRA6TDBISLONGQT/


we should do a better job of advertising typing.NamedTuple by aliasing it in the collections module.

(I'm not sure if this can still go into 3.8, since it's not really a new feature, or if its too late.)
