-* A new module, :mod:`ipaddr` has been added to the standard library.
- It provides classes to represent, verify and manipulate IPv4 and IPv6
- host and network addresses.
-
- The :func:`ipaddr.IP` factory function creates an address object from
- a string or integer representing the IP or the IP and prefix/netmask.
- The objects provide a number of attributes for direct access to
- components of the full address::
-
- >>> addr = IP('2001:658:22A:CAFE:200::1/64')
- >>> for attr in ['ip', 'ip_ext', 'ip_ext_full', 'network', 'network_ext',
- ... 'hostmask', 'hostmask_ext', 'broadcast', 'broadcast_ext',
- ... 'netmask', 'netmask_ext', 'prefixlen']:
- ... print(attr, '=', getattr(addr, attr))
- ...
- ip = 42540616829182469433547762482097946625
- ip_ext = 2001:658:22a:cafe:200::1
- ip_ext_full = 2001:0658:022a:cafe:0200:0000:0000:0001
- network = 42540616829182469433403647294022090752
- network_ext = 2001:658:22a:cafe::
- hostmask = 18446744073709551615
- hostmask_ext = ::ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff
- broadcast = 42540616829182469451850391367731642367
- broadcast_ext = 2001:658:22a:cafe:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff
- netmask = 340282366920938463444927863358058659840
- netmask_ext = 64
- prefixlen = 64
-
- Each address object supports a number of simple properties including:
- ``is_private``, ``is_multicast``, ``is_loopback``, and ``is_link_local``.
-
- Additionally, the address objects provide a sort order for IP addresses,
- support for address ranges (stored as lists of addresses), and subnet
- computations.

-
* The :mod:`nntplib` and :mod:`imaplib` modules now support IPv6.
