\item The \module{pyexpat} module now uses version 2.0 of the Expat parser.

\item The \class{Queue} class provided by the \module{Queue} module
gained two new methods. \method{join()} blocks until all items in
the queue have been retrieved and all processing work on the items
have been completed. Worker threads call the other new method,
\method{task_done()}, to signal that processing for an item has been
completed. (Contributed by Raymond Hettinger.)
\item The old \module{regex} and \module{regsub} modules, which have been
deprecated ever since Python 2.0, have finally been deleted.
