+     - Add a new concept, "silent deprecation", with associated warning
+       SilentDeprecationWarning.  This warning is normally suppressed,
+       but can be enabled by a suitable -W option.
+ 
+     - Use silent deprecation for the types and string modules.  This
+       requires providing alternatives for the parts that aren't
+       covered yet (e.g. string.whitespace and types.TracebackType).
+ 
      - Documentation: complete the distribution and installation
        manuals.
