Hello, and thanks for your contribution!

I'm a bot set up to make sure that the project can legally accept your contribution by verifying you have signed the PSF contributor agreement (CLA).

Unfortunately our records indicate you have not signed the CLA. For legal reasons we need you to sign this before we can look at your contribution. Please follow the steps outlined in the CPython devguide to rectify this issue.

Thanks again to your contribution and we look forward to looking at it!

I know GitHub is not very user friendly, but you can view your pull requests before opening them.

Ah, apparently @zware did the right magic now. Reopening.

It looks like you made this change against the 3.6 branch, so I changed the base branch. However, our workflow is to patch master first, then backport to any other applicable branches. Could you please recreate your pull request as a single commit against the master branch?

@zware I am new to github, i will try and see if i can do what you recommend.

You also need to open an issue at bugs.python.org (follow the bedevere/issue-number details link for more).
