Releases generally aren't a problem, since they're heavily automated and scheduled well in advance. I'm glad to continue helping with that, especially since that seems to be about all I can get to sometimes.

Great, I updated the PEP.

Documentation build errors should probably be separated from leak detection reports. I don't know what it would take to get them separated.

Yup, they already are AFAICT. I will activate the 2.4 doc builds to send failures to python-checkins unless someone has a better idea. These should be very rare. The destination is controlled by FAILURE_MAILTO in Misc/build.sh.

The general question of where the development docs should show up remains. [4 options sliced]

Agreed, I don't have a strong opinion either. There should definitely only be one place to look though. That should make things easier. What do others think?

My own inclination is that if we continue to use docs.python.org, it should contain only one copy of the documentation, and that should be for the most recent "stable" release (though perhaps an updated version of the documentation).
