From e00e0db302ce4dd2f25457d2e567449983b7c554 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ivan Levkivskyi Date: Mon, 16 Sep 2019 23:04:06 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] bpo-28556: Update the opening note in typing docs (GH-16204) This PR replaces the old note mentioning that `typing` is a provisional module with a new one mentioning types are not enforced at runtime. I am not sure if there was any official announcement about making `typing` non-provisional, but _de-facto_ no new features were added during Python 3.7, and no backwards incompatible changes were made except for few small things that were considered bugs.
