requires and provides. requires is a sequence of strings, of the
form 'packagename-version'. The dependency checking so far merely
does an '__import__(packagename)' and checks for packagename.__version__
You can also leave off the version, and any version of the package
will be installed.
There's a special case for the package 'python' - sys.version_info
is used, so
requires= ( 'python-2.3', )
just works.
Provides is of the same format as requires - but if it's not supplied,
a provides is generated by adding the version to each entry in packages,
or modules if packages isn't there.
Provides is currently only used in the PKG-INFO file. Shortly, PyPI
will grow the ability to accept these lines, and register will be
updated to send them.
There's a new command 'checkdep' command that runs these checks.
For this version, only greater-than-or-equal checking is done. We'll
add the ability to specify an optional operator later.
It's possible to create insane datetime objects by using the constructor

UNTESTED!!!
This simple two-line patch has been sitting on SF for more than 2 years.
I'm guessing it's because nobody knows how to test it -- I sure don't.
It doesn't look like you can get to this part of the code on Unixish
or Windows systems, so the "how to test it?" puzzle has more than one
part. OTOH, if this is dead code, it doesn't matter either if I just
broke it <wink>.

* list.__reversed__ now checks the length of the sequence object before
calling PyList_GET_ITEM() because the mutable could have changed length.
* all three implementations are now tranparent with respect to length and

sequence mutates.
* __builtin__.reversed() now frees the underlying sequence as soon
as the iterator is exhausted.
* the code paths were rearranged so that the most common paths
do not require a jump.
Side-effects were deemed unnecessary and were causing problems at shutdown

The writelines() method now accepts any iterable argument and writes

There are two possible incompatibilities that we'll need to watch out
for when we get to an alpha release. We may get a different class of
exceptions out of httplib, and the do_open() method changed its
signature. The latter is only important if anyone actually subclasses
AbstractHTTPHandler.
John J. Lee writes: "the patch makes it possible to implement
functionality like HTTP cookie handling, Refresh handling,
etc. etc. using handler objects. At the moment urllib2's handler
objects aren't quite up to the job, which results in a lot of
cut-n-paste and subclassing. I believe the changes are
backwards-compatible, with the exception of people who've
reimplemented build_opener()'s functionality -- those people would
need to call opener.add_handler(HTTPErrorProcessor).
The main change is allowing handlers to implement
methods like:
http_request(request)
http_response(request, response)
In addition to the usual
http_open(request)
http_error{_*}(...)

Note that the change isn't well documented at least in part because
handlers aren't well documented at all. Need to fix this.

subtype_dealloc(): This left the dying object exposed to gc, so that
if cyclic gc triggered during the weakref callback, gc tried to delete
the dying object a second time. That's a disaster. subtype_dealloc()
had a (I hope!) unique problem here, as every normal dealloc routine
untracks the object (from gc) before fiddling with weakrefs etc. But
subtype_dealloc has obscure technical reasons for re-registering the
dying object with gc (already explained in a large comment block at
the bottom of the function).
The fix amounts to simply refraining from reregistering the dying object
with gc until after the weakref callback (if any) has been called.
This is a critical bug (hard to predict, and causes seemingly random
