Bug #115673, was updated on 2000-Sep-29 10:04
Here is a current snapshot of the bug.

Project: Python
Category: Documentation
Status: Open
Resolution: None
Bug Group: Not a Bug
Priority: 5
Summary: Typo in the documentation (very low priority)

Details: Python v2.0b2 docs contain the non-word 'reversely'.  Perhaps 'conversely' was intended.

See Section 8.1 of "Python/C API Reference Manual".  Last sentence of the following paragraph:

"The global interpreter lock is used to protect the pointer to the current thread state. When releasing the lock and saving the thread state, the current thread state pointer must be retrieved before the lock is released (since another thread could immediately acquire the lock and store its own thread state in the global variable). Reversely, when acquiring the lock and restoring the thread state, the lock must be acquired before storing the thread state pointer."
