Yep, after the thanksgiving delay I've opened bug #4482 (http://bugs.python.org/issue4482).

I either don't know how to or don't have the power to change who a bug is assigned to so it appears to be currently unassigned.

Finally providing any sign character seems to cause +1.0#INF and friends to be returned instead of inf as is documented:

10e667.format('+') '+1.0#INF' 10e667.format('') 'inf' Are these just doc bugs? The inf issue is the only one that seems particularly weird to me.

I think the inf one is a bug. Would you mind opening a bug and assigning it to me? Thanks.

Eric.
