+What's new in 2.0 (since release candidate 1)?
+==============================================
+
+Standard library
+
+- The copy_reg module was modified to clarify its intended use: to
+  register pickle support for extension types, not for classes.
+  pickle() will raise a TypeError if it is passed a class.
+
+- Fixed a bug in gettext's "normalize and expand" code that prevented
+  it from finding an existing .mo file.
+
+- Restored support for HTTP/0.9 servers in httplib.
+
+- XXX The math module was changed to suppress underflow errors and
+  just return 0.
+
+- Fixed a bug in StringIO that occurred when the file position was not
+  at the end of the file and write() was called with enough data to
+  extend past the end of the file.
+
+- Fixed a bug that caused Tkinter error messages to get lost on
+  Windows.  The bug was fixed by replacing direct use of
+  interp->result with Tcl_GetStringResult(interp).
+
+- Fixed bug in urllib2 that caused it to fail when it received an HTTP
+  redirect response.
+
+- Several changes were made to distutils: Some debugging code was
+  removed from util.  Fixed the installer used when an external zip
+  program (like WinZip) is not found; the source code for this
+  installer is in Misc/distutils.  check_lib() was modified to behave
+  more like AC_CHECK_LIB by add other_libraries() as a parameter.  The
+  test for whether installed modules are on sys.path was changed to
+  use both normcase() and normpath().
+
+- XXX xml minidom, pulldom, expatreader, and saxutils changes (can't
+  tell what happened from the CVS logs)
+
+- The regression test driver (regrtest.py) behavior when invoked with
+  -l changed: It now reports a count of objects that are recognized as
+  garbage but not freed by the garbage collector.
+
+- The regression test for the math module was changed to report
+  exceptional behavior when the test is run in verbose mode.
+
+Internals
+
+- PyOS_CheckStack() has been disabled on Win64, where it caused
+  test_sre to fail.
+
+Build issues
+
+- Changed compiler flags, so that gcc is always invoked with -Wall and
+  -Wstrict-prototypes.  Users compiling Python with GCC should see
+  exactly one warning, except if they have passed configure the
+  --with-pydebug flag.  The expect warning is for getopt() in
+  Modules/main.c. 
+
+- Fixed configure to add -threads argument during linking on OSF1. 
+
+Tools and other miscellany
+
+- The compiler in Tools/compiler was updated to support the new
+  language features introduced in 2.0: extended print statement, list
+  comprehensions, and augmented assignments.  The new compiler should
+  also be backwards compatible with Python 1.5.2; the compiler will
+  always generate code for the version of the interpreter it runs
+  under.
