In trying to keep importlib's docs THE place to go for links to all relevant import details, a link to PEP 3147 is needed.

Hi Brett,

I would like to contribute to the open source community and Python is my favourite language, so I figured I would begin here. But I have never done this before, so I am a open-source-contributor-newbie.

So to resolve this issue, I would need to:
Check out the source for Python 3.2.
Locate the importlib module.
Find the file containing the documentation (I presume it would be __init__.py).
Then insert some text and a URL to PEP 3147.
Then commit the change.

Is this the right approach?

Follow the process mentioned here:
http://www.python.org/dev/faq/

And create a patch against Docs/library/importlib.rst with the
reference to PEP 3147 included. That is it. Look for other places
where it might need reference too.

Attach the patch to this bug report.

Thanks for wanting to help, Ashley! And Senthil hit all the right points. If you need any help with the code checkout you can read http://www.python.org/dev/setup/ (and in general dev questions are hopefully answered by something linked from http://www.python.org/dev/ ).

Thanks Senthil & Brett for your help.

Here's my patch. It is very simple, so simple I think it may be wrong.
