! Open items -- should be done/fixed
  
!     Decoding errors when comparing strings.  There is a dictionary bug
!     that prevents objects from being accessible when an exception is
!     raised during hashing or comparison.
  
!     Decide what to do about os.path.commonprefix.  Then do it.
!     [19-Aug-2000 tim
!      Guido msg on Python-Dev:
!      - restore the old behavior on all platforms - Skip volunteered for this
!      - add to the docs that to get the common directory you use dirname()
!      - add testcases that check that this works on all platforms
!      - don't add commonpathprefix(), because dirname() already does it
!     ]
  
!     2.0b1:  Get all patches out of Open.
  
!     2.0b1:  Get all patches out of Accepted.
  
!     2.0b1:  Decide on a license.
! 
!     2.0b1 Windows:  Look for registry info in HKCU before HKLM - Mark
      Hammond.
  
!     2.0b1 Windows installer:  If HKLM isn't writable, back off to HKCU (so
      Python can be installed on NT & 2000 without admin privileges).
  
!     2.0b1 Windows installer:  Install w9xpopen.exe only under Win95/98.
  
!     2.0b1 Windows ME:  Don't know anything about it.  Will the installer
      even run?  Does it need the w9xpopen hack?
  
!     2.0b1 Win98 Guido:  popen is hanging on Guido, and even freezing the
      whole machine.  No clue yet.
  
!     2.0:  Decide on a license.
  
!     2.0:  Finish writing the PEPs for the features that went out
!     with 2.0b1(! sad, but realistic -- we'll get better with practice).
  
!     2.0:  Major effort to whittle the bug database down to size.  I've (tim)
!     seen this before:  if you can keep all the open bugs fitting on one
!     screen, people will generally keep it that way.  But let it slobber
!     over a screen for a month, & it just goes to hell (no "visible
!     progress" indeed!).
