I'm opening bugs and PRs as I Go. Some examples are:

https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/98929b545e86e7c7296c912d8f34e8e8d3fd6439
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/6845
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/6848
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/6849
https://bugs.python.org/issue33485

And so on
