! \item There is a new \module{collections} module which currently offers
!    just one new datatype, \class{deque}, which offers high-performance,
!    thread-safe, memory friendly appends and pops on either side of the
!    deque resulting in efficient stacks and queues:

! \item There is a new \module{collections} module for 
!    various specialized collection datatypes.  
!    Currently it contains just one type, \class{deque}, 
!    a double-ended queue that supports efficiently adding and removing
!    elements from either end.

! Several modules now take advantage of \class{collections.deque()} for
  improved performance:  \module{Queue}, \module{mutex}, \module{shlex}
  \module{threading}, and \module{pydoc}.
  
  \item The \module{heapq} module has been converted to C.  The resulting
!    ten-fold improvement in speed makes the module suitable for handling
     high volumes of data.
