+ What's New in Python 2.4 alpha 2?
+ =================================
+ 
+ *Release date: XX-XXX-2004*
+ 
+ Core and builtins
+ -----------------
+ 
+ - Allow string and unicode return types from .encode()/.decode()
+   methods on string and unicode objects. Added unicode.decode()
+   which was missing for no apparent reason.
+ 
+ - An attempt to fix the mess that is Python's behaviour with 
+   signal handlers and threads, complicated by readline's behaviour.
+   It's quite possible that there are still bugs here.
