The development head has recently moved from
CVS on sourceforge to subversion on python.org.

The www.python.org documentation still sends
people to the sourceforge cvs via

(1) The left hand navigation link (main page) under
Documenation section, python project, cvs. (The
similar link on http://www.python.org/dev/ has been
updated.)

(2) The text of http://www.python.org/dev/ still says
that deveopment takes place on sourceforge and
sends people to the sourceforge cvs browser

It also includes a link to (sourceforge) CVS
instructions, but no mention of subversion.

(3) The tools link then points to http://www.python.
org/dev/tools.html, which still refers to CVS and CVS
instructions.

(4) The developer FAQ (http://www.python.org/dev/
devfaq.html) contains sections 1.2 and 1.4 for
subversion (combine them?) and 1.3 for CVS --
section 1.3 seems to imply that the CVS tree is still
active.

I fixed the first two. The latter will be modified later
this year, or next year.

Brett, did you finish updating all these docs? Is this bug
dead now?

Everything but tools.html has been fixed. That doc really
just needs to be replaced (see python-dev and the thread on
the dev FAQ update for any discussion on the topic) and so
fixing it is not on my list of things to do. =)

I will leave this bug open, though, until the doc is deleted.

www.python.org/patches says:

We appreciate it if you send patches relative to the
`current svn tree
System Message: WARNING/2 (./index.ht, line 33); backlink

without end-string.

<http://www.python.org/dev/devfaq.html#subversion-svn\>\`\_.
These are our latest sources. Even a patch relative to the
latest alpha or beta release may be way out of date.

All of the mentioned issues have been cleaned up. Closing
as fixed.
