 Core language
 =============
 
-* Remove distinction between int and long types [1]_
 * True division becomes default behavior [10]_
-* Make all strings be Unicode, and have a separate bytes() type [1]_
 * ``exec`` as a statement is not worth it -- make it a function
 * Add optional declarations for static typing [11]_
 * Support only new-style classes; classic classes will be gone [1]_
-* Return iterators instead of lists where appropriate for atomic type methods
-  (e.g. ``dict.keys()``, ``dict.values()``, ``dict.items()``, etc.)
-  (Do we keep iter*() methods or remove them?  I vote remove. -- nn)
 * Replace ``print`` by a function [16]_
 * Do something so you can catch multiple exceptions using ``except E1,
   E2, E3:``. Maybe use ``except E1, E2, E3 as err:`` if you want the

 * Cleanup the Py_InitModule() variants {,3,4} (also import and parser APIs)
 * Cleanup the APIs exported in pythonrun, etc.
-* Fix (or remove) {}.setdefault() [21]_
 * Some expressions will require parentheses that didn't in 2.x:
+
   - List comprehensions will require parentheses around the iterables.
     This will make list comprehensions more similar to generator comprehensions.
     [x for x in 1, 2] will need to be:  [x for x in (1, 2)]
   - Lambdas will have to be parenthesized [23]_
+
 * Builtin module init function names (PyMODINIT_FUNC) will be prefixed
   with _Py (or Py).  Currently they aren't namespace safe since the names
   start with init.
