\item The \module{imaplib} module now supports IMAP over SSL.
(Contributed by Piers Lauder and Tino Lange.)
\item The \ulink{\module{itertools}}{../lib/module-itertools.html}
module provides several functions to support efficient looping using
iterators.
\item The \module{itertools} contains a number of useful functions for
use with iterators, inspired by various functions provided by the ML
and Haskell languages. For example,
\code{itertools.ifilter(predicate, iterator)} returns all elements in
the iterator for which the function \function{predicate()} returns
\constant{True}, and \code{itertools.times(\var{N}, obj)} returns
\code{obj} \var{N} times. There are a number of other functions in
the module; see the \ulink{package's reference
documentation}{../lib/module-itertools.html} for details.
\item Two new functions in the \module{math} module,
\function{degrees(\var{rads})} and \function{radians(\var{degs})},
