Where to put the docstring in a module?

Where is the most common place that you people put module docstrings in your source code files?

Is it right after the shebang line and before the copyright notice, or perhaps after the copyright notice and before imports?

Thanks.

[ What is a

Docstring?](PEP 257 – Docstring Conventions | peps.python.org)
A docstring is a string literal that occurs as the first
statement in
a module, function, class, or method definition. Such a docstring
becomes the __doc__ special
attribute of that object.
