As of today, "What’s New In Python 3.2" [1] does not even mention the unicodedata upgrade to 6.0.0.
One reason was that I was instructed not to change "What's New" a few years ago.
Maybe all past, present and future whatsnew maintainers can agree on these rules, which I copied directly from whatsnew/3.2.rst? Rules for maintenance: * Anyone can add text to this document. Do not spend very much time on the wording of your changes, because your text will probably get rewritten to some degree. * The maintainer will go through Misc/NEWS periodically and add changes; it's therefore more important to add your changes to Misc/NEWS than to this file. * This is not a complete list of every single change; completeness is the purpose of Misc/NEWS. Some changes I consider too small or esoteric to include. If such a change is added to the text, I'll just remove it. (This is another reason you shouldn't spend too much time on writing your addition.) * If you want to draw your new text to the attention of the maintainer, add 'XXX' to the beginning of the paragraph or section. * It's OK to just add a fragmentary note about a change. For example: "XXX Describe the transmogrify() function added to the socket module." The maintainer will research the change and write the necessary text. * You can comment out your additions if you like, but it's not necessary (especially when a final release is some months away). * Credit the author of a patch or bugfix. Just the name is sufficient; the e-mail address isn't necessary. It's helpful to add the issue number: XXX Describe the transmogrify() function added to the socket module. (Contributed by P.Y. Developer; :issue:`12345`.) This saves the maintainer the effort of going through the SVN log when researching a change. Georg
