+ Accepted and completed
+ 
+ Accepted and in progress
+ 
+     * SyntaxError enhancements - Fredrik Lundh
+       http://www.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2000-July/012981.html
+ 
+     * interface to poll system call - Andrew Kuchling
+       An OO interface to the poll system call will be added to the
+       select module.
+ 
+     * Compression of Unicode database - Fredrik Lundh
+       http://hem.passagen.se/eff/bot.htm#456806
+ 
+     * SRE - Fredrik Lundh
+       The test suite still fails on test_re.
+ 
+     * snprintf - owner???
+       Use snprintf to avoid buffer overflows.  Need configure hackery
+       to discovery if it is available on the current platform and a
+       default implementation if it is not.
+       http://www.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2000-April/010051.html
+       This function is expected to be part of C9X (check).
+ 
+     * Support for opcode arguments > 2**16 - Charles Waldman
+       Source files longer than 32K and sequences with more than 32K
+       elements both fail because opcode arguments are limited to
+       16-bit values.
+ 
+     * Range literals - Thomas Wouters
+       Make range(1, 10, 2) == [1:10:2]
+ 
+ Open: proposed but not accepted or declined
+ 
+     * List comprehensions - Tim Peters?
+       Need a coherent proposal.  Lots of confusing discussion going
+       on.
+ 
+     * Eliminated SET_LINENO opcode - Vladimir Marangozov
+       Small optimization achieved by using the code object's lnotab
+       instead of the SET_LINENO instruction.  Uses code rewriting
+       technique (that Guido's growns on) to support debugger, which
+       uses SET_LINENO.
