+For modules existing in both Python 2.7 and Python 3.5
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+In order to facilitate writing code that works in both Python 2 & 3
+simultaneously, any module that exists in both Python 3.5 and
+Python 2.7 will not be removed from the standard library until
+Python 2.7 is no longer supported as specified by PEP 373. Exempted
+from this rule is any module in the idlelib package as well as any
+exceptions granted by the Python development team.
