 If you are working on Python it is very possible you will come across an issue
 where you need some assistance to solve it (this happens to core developers
-all the time). Below are some options on getting help.

 Ask (#)python-dev
 -----------------
 
-You have two avenues of communication out of the :ref:`myriad of options
-available <communication>`. If you are comfortable with IRC you can try asking
-on ``#python-dev`` (on the `freenode <http://freenode.net/>`_ network).
-Typically there are a couple of experienced developers, ranging from
-triagers to core developers, who can answer questions about developing for
-Python. If you prefer email you can ask the `python-dev mailing-list
-<http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev>`_ for help with your
-question. Just remember that both avenues are for questions involving the
-development *of* Python, **not** for development *with* Python.

+Core Mentorship
+---------------
+
+If you are interested in improving Python and contributing to its development,
+but don’t yet feel entirely comfortable with the public channels mentioned above
+`Python Mentors`_ are here to help you.  Python is fortunate to have a community
+of volunteer developers willing to mentor anyone wishing to contribute
+code, work on bug fixes or improve documentation.  Everyone is welcomed and
+encouraged to contribute.

+Mailing Lists
+-------------
+
+Other options for improving Python include the `python-ideas`_ and `python-dev`_
+mailing lists.  Python-ideas contains discussion of speculative Python language
+ideas for possible inclusion into the language. If an idea gains traction it can
+then be discussed and honed to the point of becoming a solid proposal and put to
+python-dev as appropriate.  Python-dev contains discussion of Python design
+issues, release mechanics, and maintenance of existing releases.  As with
+``#python-dev``, these mailing lists are for questions involving the development
+*of* Python, **not** for development *with* Python.
