Andrew M. Kuchling 1da4a94719 Add Gregory K. Johnson's revised version of mailbox.py (funded by
the 2005 Summer of Code).

The revision adds a number of new mailbox classes that support adding
and removing messages; these classes also support mailbox locking and
default to using email.Message instead of rfc822.Message.

The old mailbox classes are largely left alone for backward compatibility.
The exception is the Maildir class, which was present in the old module
and now inherits from the new classes.  The Maildir class's interface
is pretty simple, though, so I think it'll be compatible with existing
code.

(The change to the NEWS file also adds a missing word to a different
news item, which unfortunately required rewrapping the line.)

Thomas Heller 9f7e58afa7 Documentation for ctypes.
I think that 'generic operating system services' is the best category.
Note that the Doc/lib/libctypes.latex file is generated from reST sources.
You are welcome to make typo fixes, and I'll try to keep the reST sources
in sync, but markup changes would be lost - they should be fixed in the tool
that creates the latex file.
The conversion script is external/ctypes/docs/manual/mkpydoc.py.

Walter Dörwald f7bc5f9455 Change the example classes UnicodeReader and UnicodeWriter so
that they work with all encodings. For UnicodeReader the real
input stream is wrapped in a line iterator that reencodes the
input to UTF-8. For UnicodeWriter the UTF-8 encoded output is
written to a queue for where it is reencoded to the target
encoding and written to the real output stream.

Neal Norwitz 05a45599d7 Patch #1309579: wait3 and wait4 were added to the posix module by Chad J. Schroeder.
This was a fair amount of rework of the patch.  Refactored test_fork1 so it
could be reused by the new tests for wait3/4.  Also made them into new style
unittests (derive from unittest.TestCase).

Anthony Baxter fa86907aae SF [ 1231053 ] audioop - alaw encoding/decoding added, code updated
This patch adds a-LAW encoding to audioop and replaces the old
u-LAW encoding/decoding code with the current code from sox.

Possible issues: the code from sox uses int16_t.

Guido van Rossum c2e20744b2 PEP 343 -- the with-statement.
This was started by Mike Bland and completed by Guido
(with help from Neal).

This still needs a __future__ statement added;
Thomas is working on Michael's patch for that aspect.

There's a small amount of code cleanup and refactoring
in ast.c, compile.c and ceval.c (I fixed the lltrace
behavior when EXT_POP is used -- however I had to make
lltrace a static global).

Guido van Rossum 1968ad32cd - Patch 1433928:
- The copy module now "copies" function objects (as atomic objects).
  - dict.__getitem__ now looks for a __missing__ hook before raising
    KeyError.
  - Added a new type, defaultdict, to the collections module.
    This uses the new __missing__ hook behavior added to dict (see above).

Tim Peters d34350e47e At Brian Wichmann's request, added words warning against

Note sure I got the LaTeX entirely correct for \seeurl.
If it's broken, please fix it ;-)

sense for 2.4.)
