 New, Improved, and Deprecated Modules
 =====================================
 
-* Stub
+* The previously deprecated :func:`string.maketrans` function has been
+  removed in favor of the static methods, :meth:`bytes.maketrans` and
+  :meth:`bytearray.maketrans`.  This change solves the confusion around which
+  types were supported by the :mod:`string` module. Now, :class:`str`,
+  :class:`bytes`, and :class:`bytearray` each have their own **maketrans** and
+  **translate** methods with intermediate translation tables of the
+  appropriate type.
+
+  (Contributed by Georg Brandl; :issue:`5675`.)
+
+* The previously deprecated :func:`contextlib.nested` function has been
+  removed in favor of a plain :keyword:`with` statement which can
+  accept multiple context managers.  The latter technique is faster
+  (because it is built-in), and it does a better job finalizing multiple
+  context managers when one of them raises an exception.
 
+  (Contributed by Georg Brandl and Mattias Brändström;
