First, check that the bug is present in the development version of the
documentation at <http://python.sourceforge.net/devel-docs/>; we may
have already fixed it.
If we haven't, tell us about it. We'd like the documentation to be
complete and accurate, but have limited time. If you discover any
inconsistencies between the documentation and implementation, or just
have suggestions as to how to improve the documentation, let is know!
Send comments and patches to the Python Documentation Team:
Specific bugs and patches should be reported using our bug & patch
databases at:

Other suggestions or questions should be sent to the Python
Documentation Team:

There is a new LaTeX document class called "howto". This is used for
the new series of Python HOWTO documents which is being coordinated by

tools/mkhowto. These documents can be formatted as HTML, PDF,
PostScript, or ASCII files. Support for this document class is
still new, but is expected to evolve rapidly. Use "mkhowto --help"
for information on using the formatting tool.
