We couldn't find a bugs.python.org (b.p.o) account corresponding to the following GitHub usernames:

This might be simply due to a missing "GitHub Name" entry in one's b.p.o account settings. This is necessary for legal reasons before we can look at this contribution. Please follow the steps outlined in the CPython devguide to rectify this issue.

You can check yourself to see if the CLA has been received.

Thanks again for the contribution, we look forward to reviewing it!

Hi @sjvrijn, thanks for fixing the docs. Please sign the CLA, it may not be necessary for this change but you will need it if you want to contribute more significant changes in the future :)

[sjvrijn]

Hi @remilapeyre, the CLA has been signed. Is there anything else I forgot?

[remilapeyre]

Hi @sjvrijn, everything's good then 👍 .

Now a core developer will make a second round of review and will either merge your PR or ask for some changes. There is a lot of PRs to review so it may take some time thought.
