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]
