+<<<<<<< .working
+=======
+- Issue #1402: Fix a crash on exit, when another thread is still running, and
+  if the deallocation of its frames somehow calls the PyGILState_Ensure() /
+  PyGILState_Release() functions.
+
+- Expose the Py_Py3kWarningFlag as sys.py3kwarning.
+
+- Issue #1445: Fix a SystemError when accessing the ``cell_contents``
+  attribute of an empty cell object.
+
+- Issue #1460: The utf-7 incremental decoder did not accept truncated input.
+  It now correctly saves its state between chunks of data.
+
+- Patch #1739468: Directories and zipfiles containing a __main__.py file can
+  now be directly executed by passing their name to the interpreter. The
+  directory/zipfile is automatically inserted as the first entry in sys.path.
+
+- Issue #1265: Fix a problem with sys.settrace, if the tracing function uses a
+  generator expression when at the same time the executed code is closing a
+  paused generator.
+
+- sets and frozensets now have an isdisjoint() method.
+
+- optimize the performance of builtin.sum().
+
+- Fix warnings found by the new version of the Coverity checker.
+
+- The enumerate() builtin function is no longer bounded to sequences smaller
+  than LONG_MAX.  Formerly, it raised an OverflowError.  Now, automatically
+  shifts from ints to longs.
+
+- Issue #1686386: Tuple's tp_repr did not take into account the possibility of
+  having a self-referential tuple, which is possible from C code.  Nor did
+  object's tp_str consider that a type's tp_str could do something that could
+  lead to an inifinite recursion.  Py_ReprEnter() and Py_EnterRecursiveCall(),
+  respectively, fixed the issues.
+
+- Issue #1164: It was possible to trigger deadlock when using the 'print'
+  statement to write to a file since the GIL was not released as needed.  Now
+  PyObject_Print() does the right thing along with various tp_print
+  implementations of the built-in types and those in the collections module.
+
+- Issue #1147: Exceptions were directly allowing string exceptions in their
+  throw() method even though string exceptions no longer allowed.
+
+- Issue #1096: Prevent a segfault from getting the repr of a very deeply nested
+  list by using the recursion counter.
+
+- Issue #1202533: Fix infinite recursion calls triggered by calls to
+  PyObject_Call() never calling back out to Python code to trigger recursion
+  depth updates/checks.  Required the creation of a static RuntimeError
+  instance in case normalizing an exception put the recursion check value past
+  its limit.  Fixes crashers infinite_rec_(1|2|4|5).py.
+
+- Patch #1031213: Decode source line in SyntaxErrors back to its original source
+  encoding.
+
+- Patch #1673759: add a missing overflow check when formatting floats
+  with %G.
+
+- Prevent expandtabs() on string and unicode objects from causing a segfault
+  when a large width is passed on 32-bit platforms.
+
+- Bug #1733488: Fix compilation of bufferobject.c on AIX.
+
+- Bug #1722485: remove docstrings again when running with -OO.
+
+- Add new attribute names for function objects.  All the func_* become
+  __*__ attributes.  (Some already existed, e.g., __doc__ and __name__.)
+
+- Add -3 option to the interpreter to warn about features that are
+  deprecated and will be changed/removed in Python 3.0.
+
+- Patch #1686487: you can now pass any mapping after '**' in function
+  calls.
+
+- except clauses may now be spelled either "except E, target:" or
+  "except E as target:". This is to provide forwards compatibility with
+  Python 3.0.
+
+- Deprecate BaseException.message as per PEP 352.
+
+- Bug #1303614: don't expose object's __dict__ when the dict is
+  inherited from a builtin base.
+
+- When __slots__ are set to a unicode string, make it work the same as
+  setting a plain string, ie don't expand to single letter identifiers.
+
+- Request #1191699:  Slices can now be pickled.
+
+- Request #1193128:  str.translate() now allows a None argument for
+  translations that only remove characters without re-mapping the
+  remaining characters.
+
+- Patch #1682205: a TypeError while unpacking an iterable is no longer
+  masked by a generic one with the message "unpack non-sequence".
+
+- Remove unused file Python/fmod.c.
+
+- Bug #1683368: The object.__init__() and object.__new__() methods are
+  now stricter in rejecting excess arguments.  The only time when
+  either allows excess arguments is when it is not overridden and the
+  other one is.  For backwards compatibility, when both are
+  overridden, it is a deprecation warning (for now; maybe a Py3k
+  warning later).  Also, type.__init__() insists on the same signature
+  as supported by type.__new__().
+
+- Patch #1675423: PyComplex_AsCComplex() now tries to convert an object
+  to complex using its __complex__() method before falling back to the
+  __float__() method. Therefore, the functions in the cmath module now
+  can operate on objects that define a __complex__() method.
+
+- Patch #1623563: allow __class__ assignment for classes with __slots__.
+  The old and the new class are still required to have the same slot names.
+
+- Patch #1642547: Fix an error/crash when encountering syntax errors in
+  complex if statements.
+
+- Patch #1462488: Python no longer segfaults when ``object.__reduce_ex__()``
+  is called with an object that is faking its type.
+
+- Patch #1680015: Don't modify __slots__ tuple if it contains an unicode
+  name.
+
+- Patch #1444529: the builtin compile() now accepts keyword arguments.
+
+- Bug #1678647: write a newline after printing an exception in any
+  case, even when converting the value to a string failed.
+
+- The dir() function has been extended to call the __dir__() method on
+  its argument, if it exists. If not, it will work like before. This allows
+  customizing the output of dir() in the presence of a __getattr__().
+
+- Patch #922167: Python no longer segfaults when faced with infinitely
+  self-recursive reload() calls (as reported by bug #742342).
+
+- Patch #1675981: remove unreachable code from ``type.__new__()`` method.
+
+- Patch #1491866: change the complex() constructor to allow parthensized
+  forms. This means complex(repr(x)) now works instead of raising a
+  ValueError.
+
+- Patch #703779: unset __file__ in __main__ after running a file. This
+  makes the filenames the warning module prints much more sensible when
+  a PYTHONSTARTUP file is used.
+
+- Variant of patch #697613: don't exit the interpreter on a SystemExit
+  exception if the -i command line option or PYTHONINSPECT environment
+  variable is given, but break into the interactive interpreter just like
+  on other exceptions or normal program exit.
+
+- Patch #1638879: don't accept strings with embedded NUL bytes in long().
+
+- Bug #1674503: close the file opened by execfile() in an error condition.
+
+- Patch #1674228: when assigning a slice (old-style), check for the
+  sq_ass_slice instead of the sq_slice slot.
+
+- When printing an unraisable error, don't print exceptions. before the name.
+  This duplicates the behavior whening normally printing exceptions.
+
+- Bug #1653736: Properly discard third argument to slot_nb_inplace_power.
+
+- PEP 352: Raising a string exception now triggers a TypeError.  Attempting to
+  catch a string exception raises DeprecationWarning.
+
+- Bug #1377858: Fix the segfaulting of the interpreter when an object created
+  a weakref on itself during a __del__ call for new-style classes (classic
+  classes still have the bug).
+
+- Bug #1579370: Make PyTraceBack_Here use the current thread, not the
+  frame's thread state.
+
+- patch #1630975: Fix crash when replacing sys.stdout in sitecustomize.py
+
+- Prevent seg fault on shutdown which could occur if an object
+  raised a warning.
+
+- Bug #1566280: Explicitly invoke threading._shutdown from Py_Main,
+  to avoid relying on atexit.
+
+- Bug #1590891: random.randrange don't return correct value for big number
+
+- Patch #1586791: Better exception messages for some operations on strings,
+  tuples and lists.
+
+- Bug #1067760: Deprecate passing floats to file.seek.
+
+- Bug #1591996: Correctly forward exception in instance_contains().
+
+- Bug #1588287: fix invalid assertion for `1,2` in debug builds.
+
+- Bug #1576657: when setting a KeyError for a tuple key, make sure that
+  the tuple isn't used as the "exception arguments tuple".
+
+- Bug #1565514, SystemError not raised on too many nested blocks.
+
+- Bug #1576174: WindowsError now displays the windows error code
+  again, no longer the posix error code.
+
+- Patch #1549049: Support long values in structmember, issue warnings
+  if the assigned value for structmember fields gets truncated.
+
+- Update the peephole optimizer to remove more dead code (jumps after returns)
+  and inline unconditional jumps to returns.
+
+- Bug #1545497: when given an explicit base, int() did ignore NULs
+  embedded in the string to convert.
+
+- Bug #1569998: break inside a try statement (outside a loop) is now
+  recognized and rejected.
+
+- list.pop(x) accepts any object x following the __index__ protocol.
+
+- A number of places, including integer negation and absolute value,
+  were fixed to not rely on undefined behaviour of the C compiler
+  anymore.
+
+- Bug #1566800: make sure that EnvironmentError can be called with any
+  number of arguments, as was the case in Python 2.4.
+
+- Patch #1567691: super() and new.instancemethod() now don't accept
+  keyword arguments any more (previously they accepted them, but didn't
+  use them).
+
+- Fix a bug in the parser's future statement handling that led to "with"
+  not being recognized as a keyword after, e.g., this statement:
+  from __future__ import division, with_statement
+
+- Bug #1557232: fix seg fault with def f((((x)))) and def f(((x),)).
+
+- Fix %zd string formatting on Mac OS X so it prints negative numbers.
+
+- Allow exception instances to be directly sliced again.
+
+- Bug #1551432: Exceptions do not define an explicit __unicode__ method.  This
+  allows calling unicode() on exceptions classes directly to succeed.
+
+- Bug #1542051: Exceptions now correctly call PyObject_GC_UnTrack.
+  Also make sure that every exception class has __module__ set to
+  'exceptions'.
+
+- Bug #1550983: emit better error messages for erroneous relative
+  imports (if not in package and if beyond toplevel package).
+
+- Overflow checking code in integer division ran afoul of new gcc
+  optimizations.  Changed to be more standard-conforming.
+
+- Patch #1542451: disallow continue anywhere under a finally.
+
+- Patch #1546288: fix seg fault in dict_equal due to ref counting bug.
+
+- The return tuple from str.rpartition(sep) is (tail, sep, head) where
+  head is the original string if sep was not found.
+
+- Bug #1520864: unpacking singleton tuples in list comprehensions and
+  generator expressions (x for x, in ... ) works again.  Fixing this problem
+  required changing the .pyc magic number.  This means that .pyc files
+  generated before 2.5c2 will be regenerated.

+  main() function.
+

+- Added new platform module APIs python_branch(), python_revision(),
+  python_implementation() and linux_distribution().
+
+- Added support for IronPython and Jython to the platform module.

+  Watson.)
+
+- Patch #1514544: Try to ensure that messages/indexes have been physically
+  written to disk after calling .flush() or .close(). (Patch by David

+  list comprehensions as the builtin compiler, using the LIST_APPEND
+  opcode.
+
+- Fix codecs.EncodedFile which did not use file_encoding in 2.5.0, and
+  fix all codecs file wrappers to work correctly with the "with"

+  correctly.
+
+- Patch #1567274: Support SMTP over TLS.

+
+- ctypes callback functions only support 'fundamental' data types as
+  result type.  Raise an error when something else is used.  This is a
+  partial fix for Bug #1574584.
+
+- Fix turtle so that time.sleep is imported for the entire library.  Allows
+  the demo2 function to be executed on its own instead of only when the
+  module is run as a script.

+  match be more clear.
+
+- Fix a bug in traceback.format_exception_only() that led to an error

+  In version 2.4, this printed "None", restored that behavior.
+
+- Make webbrowser.BackgroundBrowser usable in Windows (it wasn't because
+  the close_fds arg to subprocess.Popen is not supported).

+
+- Fix utf-8-sig incremental decoder, which didn't recognise a BOM when the
+  first chunk fed to the decoder started with a BOM, but was longer than 3 bytes.
+
+- The implementation of UnicodeError objects has been simplified (start and end
+  attributes are now stored directly as Py_ssize_t members).
+
+- Issue829951: In the smtplib module, SMTP.starttls() now complies with
+  RFC 3207 and forgets any knowledge obtained from the server not obtained
+  from the TLS negotiation itself.  Patch contributed by Bill Fenner.
+
+- Issue1339: The smtplib.SMTP class has been refactored a bit such
+  that the SMTP.starttls() caller no longer needs to call ehlo()
+  beforehand.  SMTP.starttls() now raises an exception of the server
+  does not claim to support starttls.  Adds the SMTP.ehlo_or_helo_if_needed()
+  method.  Patch contributed by Bill Fenner.

+  the context manager protocol.  The _winreg module also gained a new function
+  ``ExpandEnvironmentStrings`` to expand REG_EXPAND_SZ keys.

+  time so that opening a database previously created with the DB_DUP or
+  DB_DUPSORT flag set will keep the proper behavior on subsequent opens.
+  Specifically: dictionary assignment to a DB object will replace all
+  values for a given key when the database allows duplicate values.
+  DB users should use DB.put(k, v) when they want to store duplicates; not

+
+- Speed up function calls into the math module.
+
+- Bug #1588217: don't parse "= " as a soft line break in binascii's

+
+- Bug #1552726: in readline.c, avoid repeatedly polling in interactive

+  were transposed.
+
+- Added support for linking the bsddb module against BerkeleyDB 4.5.x
+  and 4.6.x.

+- Refactor test_logging to use doctest.
+
+- Refactor test_profile and test_cprofile to use the same code to profile.
+

+- Capture socket connection resets and timeouts in test_socket_ssl and
+  test_urllib2net and raise test.test_support.ResourceDenied.
+
+- Patch #1559413: Fix test_cmd_line if sys.executable contains a space.

+
+- Added test.test_support.EnvironmentVarGuard.  It's a class that provides a
+  context manager so that one can temporarily set or unset environment
+  variables.
+
+- Added some tests for modulefinder.
+
+- Converted test_imp to use unittest.
+
+- Fix bsddb test_basics.test06_Transactions to check the version

+
+
+Tools
+-----

+  to not create the backup if the user is concerned regarding this.  Check
+  issue 1050828 for more details.
+
+- Tools/scripts/win_add2path.py was added. The simple script modifes the
+  PATH environment var of the HKCU tree and adds the python bin and script
+  directory.
+
+- Tools/18n/pygettext.py was added to the list of scripts installed by
+  Tools/scripts/setup.py (tracker item 642309).
+
+- Added IronPython and Jython support to pybench (part of which
+  was patch #1563844)
+
+- Made some minor changes to pybench output to allow the user
+  to see which Python version is running pybench
+
+- Added support for the new platform module feature
+  platform.python_implementation(); this will now be saved
+  in the benchmark pickle
+

+  directory to PCBuild/.
+
+- Bug #1699: Define _BSD_SOURCE only on OpenBSD.
+
+- Bug #1608: use -fwrapv when GCC supports it.  This is important,
+  newer GCC versions may optimize away overflow buffer overflow checks
+  without this option!
+
+- Patch #1418: Make the AC_REPLACE_FUNCS object files actually work.
+
+- Add a FAST_LOOPS build option that speeds-up looping by trading away
+  periodic threadstate and signal checking in tight loops.  By default,

+- Makefile.pre.in(buildbottest): Run an optional script pybuildbot.identify
+  to include some information about the build environment.
+
+
+C API
+-----
+
+- Unified naming convention for free lists and their limits. All free lists
+  in Object/ are named ``free_list``, the counter ``numfree`` and the upper
+  limit is a macro ``PyName_MAXFREELIST`` inside an #ifndef block.
+
+- ``PySet_Add()`` can now modify a newly created frozenset.  Similarly to
+  ``PyTuple_SetItem``, it can be used to populate a brand new frozenset; but 
+  it does not steal a reference to the added item.
+
+- Added ``PySet_Check()`` and ``PyFrozenSet_Check()`` to the set API. 
+
+- Backport of PyUnicode_FromString(), _FromStringAndSize(), _Format and
+  _FormatV from Python 3.0. Made PyLong_AsSsize_t and PyLong_FromSsize_t
+  public functions.
+
+- Patch #1720595: add T_BOOL to the range of structmember types.
+
+- Issue #1534: Added ``PyFloat_GetMax()``, ``PyFloat_GetMin()`` and
+  ``PyFloat_GetInfo()`` to the float API.
+
+- Issue #1521: On 64bit platforms, using PyArgs_ParseTuple with the t# of w#
+  format code incorrectly truncated the length to an int, even when
+  PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN is set.  The str.decode method used to return incorrect
+  results with huge strings.
+
+- Issue #1629: Renamed Py_Size, Py_Type and Py_Refcnt to Py_SIZE, Py_TYPE
+  and Py_REFCNT.
+
+- PEP 3123: Provide forward compatibility with Python 3.0, while keeping

+  PyVarObject_HEAD_INIT.
+
+- Py_ssize_t fields work in structmember when HAVE_LONG_LONG is not defined.
+

+
+- T_PYSSIZET can now be used in PyMemberDef lists for Py_ssize_t members.
+
+- Added a new API function ``PyImport_ImportModuleNoBlock``.
+
+- Bug #1637022: Prefix AST symbols with _Py_.
+
+- Fix some leftovers from the conversion from int to Py_ssize_t
+  (relevant to strings and sequences of more than 2**31 items).
+
+- Make _PyGILState_NoteThreadState() static, it was not used anywhere
+  outside of pystate.c and should not be necessary.
+
+- ``PyImport_Import`` and ``PyImport_ImportModule`` now always do absolute
+  imports. In earlier versions they might have used relative imports under
+  some conditions.
+
+- Added case insensitive comparison methods ``PyOS_stricmp(char*, char*)``
+  and ``PyOS_strnicmp(char*, char*, Py_ssize_t)``.
+
+- Bug #1542693: remove semi-colon at end of PyImport_ImportModuleEx macro
+  so it can be used as an expression.
+
+
+Windows
+-------
+
+- Patch #1706: Drop support for Win9x, WinME and NT4. Python now requires 
+  Windows 2000 or greater. The _WINVER and NTDDI_VERSION macros are set to
+  Win2k for x86/32bit builds and WinXP for AMD64 builds.
+
+- Conditionalize definition of _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE
+  and _CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE.
+
+- Bug #1216: Restore support for Visual Studio 2002.
+
+
+Mac
+---
+
+- cfmfile now raises a DeprecationWarning.
+
+- buildtools now raises a DeprecationWarning.
+
+- Removed the macfs module.  It had been deprecated since Python 2.5.  This
+  lead to the deprecation of macostools.touched() as it relied solely on macfs
+  and was a no-op under OS X.
+
+
+What's New in Python 2.5 release candidate 1?
+=============================================
+
+*Release date: 17-AUG-2006*
+
+Core and builtins
+-----------------
+
+- Unicode objects will no longer raise an exception when being
+  compared equal or unequal to a string and a UnicodeDecodeError
+  exception occurs, e.g. as result of a decoding failure.
+
+  Instead, the equal (==) and unequal (!=) comparison operators will
+  now issue a UnicodeWarning and interpret the two objects as
+  unequal. The UnicodeWarning can be filtered as desired using
+  the warning framework, e.g. silenced completely, turned into an
+  exception, logged, etc.
+
+  Note that compare operators other than equal and unequal will still
+  raise UnicodeDecodeError exceptions as they've always done.
+
+- Fix segfault when doing string formatting on subclasses of long.
+
+- Fix bug related to __len__ functions using values > 2**32 on 64-bit machines
+  with new-style classes.
+
+- Fix bug related to __len__ functions returning negative values with
+  classic classes.
+
+- Patch #1538606, Fix __index__() clipping.  There were some problems
+  discovered with the API and how integers that didn't fit into Py_ssize_t
+  were handled.  This patch attempts to provide enough alternatives
+  to effectively use __index__.
+
+- Bug #1536021: __hash__ may now return long int; the final hash
+  value is obtained by invoking hash on the long int.
+
+- Bug #1536786: buffer comparison could emit a RuntimeWarning.
+
+- Bug #1535165: fixed a segfault in input() and raw_input() when
+  sys.stdin is closed.
+
+- On Windows, the PyErr_Warn function is now exported from
+  the Python dll again.
+
+- Bug #1191458: tracing over for loops now produces a line event
+  on each iteration.  Fixing this problem required changing the .pyc
+  magic number.  This means that .pyc files generated before 2.5c1
+  will be regenerated.
+
+- Bug #1333982: string/number constants were inappropriately stored
+  in the byte code and co_consts even if they were not used, ie
+  immediately popped off the stack.
+
+- Fixed a reference-counting problem in property().
