[New-bugs-announce] [issue40311] docs.python.org banner - release blocker for 2.7.18

[Sumana Harihareswara]

New submission from Sumana Harihareswara <sh at changeset.nyc>:

Add an --outdated flag to the build_docs.py script, which sets the 'outdated' value within HTML templates.

See also https://github.com/python/docsbuild-scripts/pull/86  which also would need to be merged.

I'm not sure how to mark this in the bug metadata, but this is a blocker for the final 2.7.18 release; see https://github.com/python/steering-council/issues/3 .
