The exact behaviour of omitted and negative indices for the Pointer type may
need a closer look (especially as it's subtly different from simple slices)
but there's time yet before 2.6, and not enough before 3.0a1 :-)
1) Improve the documentation of the SSL module, with a fuller
explanation of certificate usage, another reference, proper
formatting of this and that.
2) Fix Windows bug in ssl.py, and general bug in sslsocket.close().
Remove some unused code from ssl.py. Allow accept() to be called on
sslsocket sockets.
3) Use try-except-else in import of ssl in socket.py. Deprecate use of
socket.ssl().
4) Remove use of socket.ssl() in every library module, except for
test_socket_ssl.py and test_ssl.py.
- Specialcase extended slices that amount to a shallow copy the same way as
is done for simple slices, in the tuple, string and unicode case.
- Specialcase step-1 extended slices to optimize the common case for all
involved types.
- For lists, allow extended slice assignment of differing lengths as long
as the step is 1. (Previously, 'l[:2:1] = []' failed even though
'l[:2] = []' and 'l[:2:None] = []' do not.)
- Implement extended slicing for buffer, array, structseq, mmap and
UserString.UserString.
- Implement slice-object support (but not non-step-1 slice assignment) for
UserString.MutableString.
- Add tests for all new functionality.

Here's a patch that does that.

exceptions raised in the test server thread, since SimpleXMLRPCServer
does not gracefully handle them. Changed number of requests handled
by tests server thread to one (was 2) because no tests require more
than one request. [GSoC - Alan McIntyre]
1) Fixes the bug that two class names are initial-lower-case.
2) Replaces the poll waiting for the server to become ready with
a threading.Event signal.
object's co_consts tuple; add a test to show that the previous behavior (where
these two constants were "collapsed" into one) causes serious malfunctioning.
and tests for NOOP, RSET, and VRFY. Corrected typo in a comment for
testNonnumericPort. Added a check for constructing SMTP objects when
non-numeric ports are included in the host name. Derived a server from
SMTPServer to test various ESMTP/SMTP capabilities. Check that a
second HELO to DebuggingServer returns an error. [GSoC - Alan McIntyre]
As discussed on distutils-sig: Allows the generated installer name on
64bit Windows platforms to be different than the name generated for
32bit Windows platforms.

that allows sending back exception/stack trace information about
internal server errors (this flag defaults to False to avoid sending
such information unless explicitly enabled). Added tests to verify
behavior of this new feature (these tests are skipped on win32 because
of problems with WSAEWOULDBLOCK). Renamed HTTPTestCase to
SimpleServerTestCase. [GSoC - Alan McIntyre]
against a SimpleXMLRPCServer in a separate thread. Because of
problems with WSAEWOULDBLOCK (error 10035) being raised by the server
on Windows, these new tests are skipped on win32. [GSoC - Alan McIntyre]
test.test_support.catch_warning is more full-featured and provides the same
functionality.
Since guard_warnings_filter was added in 2.6 there is no
backwards-compatibility issues.
DebuggingServerTests, construct SMTP objects with a localhost argument
to avoid abysmally long FQDN lookups (not relevant to items under
test) on some machines that would cause the test to fail. Moved server
setup code in the server function inside the try block to avoid the
possibility of setup failure hanging the test. Minor edits to conform
to PEP 8. [GSoC - Alan McIntyre]
overrides asyncore.dispatcher.handle_expt to do nothing, since
select.poll gives a POLLHUP error at the completion of these tests.
Added timeout & count arguments to several asyncore.loop calls to
avoid the possibility of a test hanging up a build. [GSoC - Alan
McIntyre]
find_prefix_at_end function. Check behavior of a string given as a
producer. Added tests for behavior of asynchat.async_chat when given
int, long, and None terminator arguments. Added usepoll attribute to
TestAsynchat to allow running the asynchat tests with poll support
chosen whether it's available or not (improves coverage of asyncore
code). [GSoC - Alan McIntyre]
so that the event gets set if a failure occurs during server setup
(otherwise the test will block forever). Changed to let the OS assign
the server port number, and client side of test waits for port number
assignment before proceeding. The test data in DispatcherWithSendTests
is also sent in multiple send() calls instead of one to make sure this
works properly. [GSoC - Alan McIntyre]
smtpd.DebuggingServer. Change to use global host & port number
variables. Modified the 'server' to take a string to send back in
order to vary test server responses. Added a test for the reaction of
smtplib.SMTP to a non-200 HELO response. [GSoC - Alan McIntyre]
