- [Hugo] Plausible stats are live!
[plausible.io/docs.python.org](https://plausible.io/docs.python.org) &
[plausible.io/packaging.python.org](https://plausible.io/packaging.python.org)

- [Hugo] Sphinx meetup tomorrow at 20 UTC:
[sphinx-doc/discussions/12443](https://github.com/orgs/sphinx-doc/discussions/12443#discussioncomment-9936592)

## Discussion

- [Daniele] Options for hosting a Python documentation sprint
(Cardiff or London, possibly Netherlands)
- Daniele ran a successful docs sprint @ DjangoCon.
- People choose anything that bothers you in the docs, determine the rule it
breaks, choose what you'd do right now to fix it. Daniele can "bless" the
idea, or not; if blessed the person can work on it.
- Some commits made it into the docs
- Daniele can arrange a sprint in one of the 3 locations
- [Ned] A sprint doesn't have to be a big formal thing; it can be a meetup
- [Daniele] Some formal structure helped
- [Ned] You don't need special permission
- [Daniele] Would a core dev be interested in joining?
- Possibly: Alex, Pradyun, Tania Allard, Petr
- [Hugo] Last year Daniele led the workshop & Hugo was clicking the merge
button at the sprint, worked very well
- [Petr] worried about the conference helping to get people to the event
- [Carol] The [packaging guide (Python Packaging User Guide)](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/)
could also use some work
- [Ned] interested in the idea spreadsheet; maybe it can help even offline
- [Carol] At last PyCon US, Shauna and Melanie tried to make their first docs
PR, and found some issues in the onboarding process
- Shauna: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1icjPpmEUH0BRPDwl7oXLkpasvwZoS5io2LyTEhblku0/edit
- Melanie: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11zxisx5XfYOsrDOn4qd-XUSpDltIOi35qiOO9fDLfnI/edit

### Python Project Documentation

*Relating to `docs.python.org`, `peps.python.org`, `devguide.python.org`, etc.*

- [Ryan] I need to load JSON with NaN values.
[The official documentation](https://docs.python.org/3/library/json.html#json.load) says:
> **parse_constant**, if specified, will be called with one of the following strings:
> `'-Infinity'`, `'Infinity'`, `'NaN'`. This can be used to raise an exception if
invalid JSON numbers are encountered.
- I could not tell how to use this, or even if it is what I needed, until I
Googled it and
[found this example on Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/a/62685520).
- As a user, I intend to open a thread on Discourse before making a PR. But
is there a more open conversation we should have about examples within
documentation for docs.python.org, first?
- You don't need a discussion; file an issue and send a PR.

- [Hugo] Re: avoiding duplicate deprecations across What's New files:
[Discourse](https://discuss.python.org/t/streamline-whats-new-by-moving-deprecations-and-removals-out-of-news/53997)
- PR [python/cpython#121241](https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/121241)
makes a start by moving pending removals from "What's New in 3.13" into
includes

- [Petr] `.. versionadded:: next`:
[python/cpython#121277](https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/121277)

- [Ned] Positional-only arguments:
[python/cpython#121197](https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/121197)
- What needs EB pronouncement
- Can we help people understand terse punctuation?
- add a tooltip? That won't work on mobile & screen readers
- still better than nothing for non-mobile users
- make it a link?
- first make sure there's a good place to link to
- make sure [searching for `/`](https://docs.python.org/3/search.html?q=%2F)
gets you to the right place?
- [Daniele] Documentation on how to read the documentation isn't good
- Ned to write this down
- PR: https://github.com/python/devguide/pull/1344

## Next meeting

The docs team generally meets on the first Tuesday of every month around 19:00-ish UTC.
