Greetings,

Interesting, i don't remember getting answers from you
all this time i was posting to this list

Normally you'd expect Mr Chris quipping along these lines:
"Well you can have your *own* version of the docs locally,
just do this and that" or the 'regular' folks posting

> Great softwares are not
distinguished by docs crankiness and
unpleasantness.

That was intended to be humourous but if it hurts, i'm
sorry, next time posting i'll be sure to write a page-full of
respectful content. I withdraw my mail above and rephrase
it below:

Greetings list,

I have been reading the Python docs since long.
I have enjoyed it, it has great pieces of information.
You have how-tos, faqs etc. Really awesome to read.

However, I feel that the style is a bit bland and off putting
for newcomers. I suggest we consider changing the theme
to a crisper and cleaner look. I find docs such as Masonite
really enjoyable to read: https://docs.masoniteproject.com/

I do hope we can advance something along these lines.


Kind Regards,

Abdur-Rahmaan Janhangeer
