Wonderful!  This should help avoid repeat reports of simple typos.

At one point, we started to separate the documentation releases so  
that update releases could be easily pushed at times when there wasn't  
a corresponding Python release.  There are a couple of examples of  
these in the specific-versions list, IIRC.  These have version numbers  
ending with "p1" (for patch 1; no more than one patched version was  
ever released for any particular Python version).

It may be worth trying this or something like it again as well, if  
there's enough volunteer time available.  Such versions would need to  
be clearly marked on every page as to when they were updated, so that  
readers can tell if they have the latest update.
