Seems more like the Misc/NEWS file to me.  I was expecting Andrew's What's
New document, which I eventually found at

    http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/2.6.html

If you Google for "site:python.org whatsnew" seven of the first eight hits
are for various versions of Andrew's 2.x What's New doc.  That's what people
expect to find.  We shouldn't be changing that now.
