\item The UTF-8 and UTF-16 codecs now cope better with receiving partial input.
Previously the \class{StreamReader} class would try to read more data,
which made it impossible to resume decoding from the stream. The
\method{read()} method will now return as much data as it can and future
calls will resume decoding where previous ones left off.
(Implemented by Walter D\"orwald.)
\item Some other new encodings were added: HP Roman8,
ISO_8859-11, ISO_8859-16, PCTP-154,

\item The \module{email} package uses a new incremental parser for MIME
message, available in the \module{email.FeedParser} module.
The new parser doesn't require reading the entire message into memory,
and doesn't throw exceptions if a message is malformed; instead it records
any problems as a \member{defect} attribute of the message.
(Developed by Anthony Baxter, Barry Warsaw, Thomas Wouters, and others.)
\item The \module{email} package was updated to version 3.0,
which dropped various deprecated APIs and removes support for Python
versions earlier than 2.3. The 3.0 version of the package uses a new
incremental parser for MIME message, available in the
\module{email.FeedParser} module. The new parser doesn't require

Other additions to \module{logging} include a \method{log(\var{level},
\var{msg})} convenience method, and a
\class{TimedRotatingFileHandler} class that rotates its log files at
a timed interval. The module already had \class{RotatingFileHandler},
which rotated logs once the file exceeded a certain size. Both
classes derive from a new \class{BaseRotatingHandler} class that can
be used to implement other rotating handlers.
(Changes implemented by Vinay Sajip.)
\item The \module{marshal} module now shares interned strings on unpacking a
data structure. This may shrink the size of certain pickle strings,
but the primary effect is to make \file{.pyc} files significantly smaller.
