this will mainly be side effects or for features that are deprecated
(sufficient notice is being given for those on the hit list).  as with
most Python releases, they will try as best they can to keep old
programs running.  in other words, they're not "starting from
scratch."  your simple Python scripts that don't involve exotic
constructs and calls should still work for the most part.
