bpo-43293: Doc: move note about GIL to top of threading module #24622
Conversation
The note about the GIL was buried pretty deep in the threading documentation, and this made it hard for first time users to discover why their attempts at using threading to parallelizing their application did not work. In this commit, the note is moved to the top of the module documention for visibility.
