Eli Bendersky added the comment: FWIW I would prefer this HOWTO to be part of the document itself. Splitting a document to two parts and keeping them separated is problematic exactly for the same reasons as external documentation in general - it can be forgotten when things get updated.
HOWTOs are good to discuss concepts that don't pertain to a specific modules, and so there is no other "natural" place to place them. Tutorials that only discuss a single module belong in its doc page together with the reference - I think there are plenty of examples in the stdlib docs where this is the case. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14814> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
