[Python-Dev] IDLE NEWS and Version

[Kurt B. Kaiser]

IDLE has historically maintained its own NEWS file, and it is now
accessible from IDLE's Help/About menu.  Maintaining this file has the
advantage that all the IDLE NEWS is kept in one place and is easily
parsable for display.  

Do we want to continue this tradition or merge IDLE NEWS into Python
NEWS on a go-forward basis?

Second, do we want to continue the IDLE versioning (currently 1.0)
or just drop it now that IDLE is no longer distributed separately?
