http://docs.python.org/ points to 2.7 yes. I'm already reading 3.3 doc to develop with Python 2.5: I prefer the most recent doc, and the API is usually exactly the same. So I vote +1 to make 3.3 the default doc. Anyway, Python 2 is a dead language! I don't like URL prefixes to indicate the version: "py3k/" for 3.2 (last Python 3 stable version), no prefix for 2.7, "release/2.6.6/" for 2.6, "dev/py3k/" for 3.3, etc. Can't we keep it simple as: - "2.6/" for 2.6 - "2.7/" for 2.7 - "3.1/" for 3.1 - "3.2/" for 3.2 - "3.3/" for 3.3 - "2.x/" (or maybe just "2/"?) as a redirection to 2.7 - "3.x/" (or maybe just "3/"?) as a redirection to 3.3 http://docs.python.org/ may be a redirection (to http://docs.python.org/3.x/) instead of directly the doc. So it would be intuitive to replace 2 by 3 (or 3 by 2) in the URL. The http://www.python.org/doc/versions/ page uses other URLS: http://www.python.org/doc/<version>/ which are redirections to http://docs.python.org/release/<version>/. For example: http://www.python.org/doc/3.2/ is a redirection to http://docs.python.org/release/3.2/ (which give the same content than http://docs.python.org/py3k/ !). On the left of http://docs.python.org/, you have links to other versions of the doc: 2.6, 3.2, 3.3... but not 3.1. 3.3 doc have links to 2.7 and 3.2 (not 2.6 or 3.1). If there is a rule to choose links on the left, I don't understand this rule.
