+  - emailing the Python-list mailing list: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
+  - searching our issue tracker (https://github.com/python/cpython/issues) to see if

+<!--
+  Use this template for hard crashes of the interpreter, segmentation faults, failed C-level assertions, and similar.
+  Do not submit this form if you encounter an exception being unexpectedly raised from a Python function.
+  Most of the time, these should be filed as bugs, rather than crashes.
+
+  The CPython interpreter is itself written in a different programming language, C.
+  For CPython, a "crash" is when Python itself fails, leading to a traceback in the C stack.
