Summary: "cmp" should be "key" in sort doc

Initial Comment:
http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/typesseq-
mutable.html:

> key specifies a function of one argument that is used 
to extract a comparison key from each list 
element: "cmp=str.lower" 

I think should be 

key specifies a function of one argument that is used to 
extract a comparison key from each list 
element: "key=str.lower"

Ignore previous comment about 'old url'.  Did not 
notice 'www.python' versus 'doc.python'.  It seems 
that 'www.python.org/doc/current' and 'docs.python.org' are 
aliased prefixes leading to the 'current' docs.

This has been fixed in the 2.4.1 doc released today
http://docs.python.org/lib/typesseq-mutable.html

(The old url with  /doc/current added no longer works for me).

Please close as 'fixed' if you can.
