+ What's New in Python 2.1 (final)?
+ =================================
+ 
+ We only changed a few things since the last release candidate, all in
+ Python library code:
+ 
+ - A bug in the locale module was fixed that affected locales which
[...1797 lines suppressed...]
+ 
+ New APIs in locale.py: normalize(), getdefaultlocale(), resetlocale(),
+ and changes to getlocale() and setlocale().
+ 
+ The new module is now enabled per default.
+ 
+ It is not true that the encodings codecs cannot be used for normal
+ strings: the string.encode() (which is also present on 8-bit strings
+ !) allows using them for 8-bit strings too, e.g. to convert files from
+ cp1252 (Windows) to latin-1 or vice-versa.
+ 
+ Japanese codecs are available from Tamito KAJIYAMA:
+ http://pseudo.grad.sccs.chukyo-u.ac.jp/~kajiyama/python/

*** 2023,3849 ****
  - Removed the unused last_is_sticky argument from the internal
    _PyTuple_Resize().  If this affects you, you were cheating.

[...1798 lines suppressed...]
- 
- The 1.6 NEWS file can't be changed after the release is done, so here
- is some late-breaking news:
- 
- New APIs in locale.py: normalize(), getdefaultlocale(), resetlocale(),
- and changes to getlocale() and setlocale().
- 
- The new module is now enabled per default.
- 
- It is not true that the encodings codecs cannot be used for normal
- strings: the string.encode() (which is also present on 8-bit strings
- !) allows using them for 8-bit strings too, e.g. to convert files from
- cp1252 (Windows) to latin-1 or vice-versa.
- 
- Japanese codecs are available from Tamito KAJIYAMA:
