Sorry if this is the wrong bug tracker for this issue. Someone just asked in #python what they should do about the fact that Python has no threads on the Mac. When asked why they thought that, they pointed to this: http://www.python.org/doc/essays/threads.html This essay is undated and unsigned, and is out of date. It should be removed from the site, or significantly edited, or at least marked at the top as "For Historical Interest Only." |

I think these files are outside of the CPython doc tree, they are probably static files on the server. That said, I agree it would be good to either add the "deprecated, kept only for historical purposes" note at the top of every file there, or simply remove them. |

Given that the note at the top says that it's an unfinished draft, I think removing it would be fine. It might be nice to see if there's anything still relevant that could be moved to the official docs, and possibly find out who wrote it and if he's ok with the removal. |

It's included in a directory of Guido's essays (http://www.python.org/doc/essays/). Guido, any thoughts about this and the others? |

I'd like to keep the essay around as a permalink, but I don't object against putting some red text at the top warning people is is horribly out of date, and linking to a better tutorial. |

Well, with the new website the url now returns a 404, so I guess we can close this. If someone wants to see it restored as a historical document, that would be an issue for the web site bug tracker. But, since other essays exist, it looks like it was a conscious decision on someone's part to omit this one. |

I don't think it was a conscious decision. Unlike most of the others, the link for this essay is to the 2.2 docs tree. I'm guessing there was a redirect there that has gone AWOL. |
