Research direction

Review the existing grammar addition checklist and opcode addition checklist sections in the devguide, then determine whether they should be grouped on one page. Define the scope of a future-directive checklist and confirm that the documentation structure and checklist content are agreed before considering the work done.

Description

needs: decision type-feature type-refactor

There are currently some checklists on different sections of devguide, such as grammar addition checklist and opcode addition checklist and I wanted to discuss adding a checklist for future directives (like from __future__ import <directive>).

Should we group that checklists in a page with divisions, and should we add a checklist for future directives (because it is also a complex process). (I can prepare a patch if agreed)
