Glad to hear it, welcome :).

Nope.  __all__ should typically be defined on public modules, just as a hint for documentation and tools, so that's why the ticket sort of refers to it as if it's there.  But twisted/web/server.py is a super old module, one that predates most of the documentation 

Really the thing to do with that ticket is to put a @var declaration into the module docstring, though.  That should be a pretty trivial patch, to help you get comfortable with the process and the tools :).

Feel free to ask if you have any other questions about contributing,
