Recent changelog entries at https://docs.python.org/3.15/whatsnew/changelog.html have their sections in this order:

  • macOS
  • Windows
  • Tools/Demos
  • Tests
  • Security
  • Library
  • IDLE
  • Documentation
  • Core and Builtins
  • C API
  • Build

Which is case-sensitive reverse alphabetical.

Prior to 3.14.0a1, they were in the order of the blurb template, which is sort of most important first:

  • Security
  • Core and Builtins
  • Library
  • Documentation
  • Tests
  • Build
  • Windows
  • macOS
  • IDLE
  • Tools/Demos
  • C API

This bug was introduced by the use of sets and a final global reverse sort in python/core-workflow#499.
