The reason I changed the text there and on the "About..." page was to avoid it all coming to the doc team (of one) as email, where it too often was lost whenever I was swamped by whatever work projects I was involved in at the time. That's a big reason to continue to emphasize using SourceForge instead of my mailbox. Ideally, emails to docs at python.org would result in issues being created somewhere, simply so they don't get lost. It probably doesn't make sense for those to land in SourceForge automatically, since then everyone has to read every plea for a printable version of the documents. At one time, there was hope that we could get a Roundup tracker running for the webmaster address, to help make sure that each request received an appropriate response, and I secretly hoped to point the docs address at that as well. Unfortunately, not enough time was available from people with sufficient Roundup know-how to finish that effort. I still think that would be really nice. -Fred -- Fred L.
