If we do, perhaps we should revisit http://bugs.python.org/issue10446 http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/b41404a3f7d4/ changed pydoc in the py3k branch to direct people to http://docs.python.org/X.Y/library/ rather than to http://docs.python.org/library/ This was applied to the 3.2 and 3.1 branches, but hasn't been backported to any of the 2.* - so if docs.python.org starts defaulting to python 3, it makes sense to backport that change to 2.*
Note that I did apply the fix for 14434 to 2.7. So yes, I think 10446 should be applied to 2.7 as well.
