[Guido van Rossum]

The plan is to have volunteers produce stubs for the stdlib, and to
contribute those to typeshed: https://github.com/JukkaL/typeshed (that's a
shared resource and will eventually be transferred to the PSF, i.e.
https://github.com/python/)

If you want to use type annotations in Python 2, there's this hack:
