New, Improved, and Deprecated Modules
=====================================
Python's standard library is now receiving significant maintenance efforts
and quality improvements.
The biggest news for Python 3.2 is that the :mod:`email` package and
:mod:`nntplib` modules now work correctly with Python 3.2's bytes/text model.
For the first time, there is correct handling of inputs with mixed encodings.
Another significant win is the addition of substantially better support for
*SSL* connections and security certificates.
In addition, many more functions and classes now have a :term:`context manager`
to support convenient and reliable resource clean-up using the
:keyword:`with`-statement.
