@JelleZijlstraJelleZijlstra commented May 24, 2025

  • Mention (again) that type.__annotations__ is unsafe. It is now safe
    when using only classes defined under PEP 649 semantics, but not with
    classes defined using from __future__ import annotations.
  • Mention that annotations on instances no longer work. There was already
    an issue about this.
  • Mention the general changes in the "Porting to Python 3.14" section.
  • annotationlib was proposed by PEP-749, not PEP-649.
