Thank you @ChristianZimpelmann

• Don't you think the documentation could still be of use? It seems to be quite general.. but haven't had a closer look at it.

Janos recommended deleting it. The docs were comprised mostly of design notes, which are rather developer documentation. I think this developer documentation is very important, but I want to use a different format ---something not on GitHub. Some of Janos' notes would be integrated into this new format.

• I cannot say much about some parts of the setup (e.g. tox vs pytest, ruff blacklisting)

Maybe @hmgaudecker can comment on this.

Happy to do so, but unlikely to happen before our meeting.

That makes sense! Just wanted to make sure that the design notes are not lost.

Leaving docformatter at v1.5.1 instead of v.1.6.0 because of incompatibilities with black.

Let's just delete it, ruff should take care of it eventually.

(I actually did not mean to approve, else the message would not have made sense, but I might as well have. So just merge as you see fit)

Thanks!
