[Python-3000] PEP 3108 - stdlib reorg/cleanup

[Alex Martelli]

Hi Brett,

great job -- but I would like to plead for the life of the sched
module.   I love sched and use it often for purposes for which it
seems to me that the proposed replacement strategy (via
threading.Timer) is not suitable: for example when I'm on a platform
without threads (and don't need threads, nor care about them -- I just
want events executed serially at specific times), or for simulation
purposes (more often than not, I'm passing something other than
time.time and time.sleep as the scheduler's callbacks).
