+issue2005:
+ignore errors on closing random file handles while importing a module (cpython compatibility)
+
+issue2013:
+added constants to _ssl for TLS 1.1 and 1.2
+
+issue2014:
+Add PyLong_FromUnicode to cpyext.
+
+issue2017: 
+On non-Linux-x86 platforms, reduced the memory impact of
 creating a lot of greenlets/tasklets.  Particularly useful on Win32 and
 on ARM, where you used to get a MemoryError after only 2500-5000
 greenlets (the 32-bit address space is exhausted).
 
+Update gdb_pypy for python3 (gdb comatability)
+
+Merged rstrategies into rpython which provides a library for Storage Strategies
+
+Support unicode strings in numpy.dtype creation i.e. np.dtype(u'int64')
+
+Various rpython cleanups for vmprof support

+issue2019:
+Fix isspace as called by rpython unicode.strip()

+issue2023:
+In the cpyext 'Concrete Object Layer' API,
+don't call methods on the object (which can be overriden),
+but directly on the concrete base type.

+issue2029:
+Hide the default_factory attribute in a dict

+issue2027:
+Better document pyinteractive and add --withmod-time

 Make `*`-unpacking in RPython function calls completely equivalent to passing
 the tuple's elements as arguments. In other words, `f(*(a, b))` now behaves 
 exactly like `f(a, b)`.
