The second PEP adds a new reserved word, "yield", which must be enabled by adding "from __future__ import generators" to the top of every module that uses it. Without that, "yield" is treated as an identifier but a warning is issued. The floor division operator // has been added as outlined in PEP 238. The / operator still provides classic division (and will until Python 3.0)...

In fact, the two together make an excellent combination...
