A discussion occurred (w/o me) on #python-dev where moving it to Doc/ would allow it to show up at docs.python.org to perhaps get more people involved. It also allows developers to contribute to the docs w/o having to get pydotorg commit rights.

the first thing on the agenda is a complete rewrite of the developer docs and moving them into the Doc/ directory I'd like to know why you think moving the developer docs into the CPython tree makes sense. My own thought here is that they're not specific to the version of Python, though some of the documentation deals with the group of specific branches being maintained.  For me, keeping them in a separate space (like www.python.org/dev/) makes sense.
