Released WebHelpers2 version 2.0b3 with most of the pending cleanups:

- Merge 'html.converters' submodule into 'html.tools'.

- Rename some helpers:
  del_quiet -> del_keys
  extract_keys -> split_dict
  format_paragraphs -> text_to_html
  render -> html_to_text
  convert_or_none -> convert

- Delete some helpers: get_many, format_number, required_legend, all, any,
no.
  Delete the Stats and SimpleStats container classes (but not the
function-based
  statistics).  Delete the sample CSS stylesheet.

Now it's about ready for the tests overhaul and Python 3 conversion.

Would anyone like to take over maintenance of WebHelpers? There's a patch
to convert it to Python 3 but I got a bunch of errors with it. There are
also a bunch of bug reports, mostly about large subpackages I've removed in
WebHelpers2. I did make a couple small bugfixes in the repo. I'm not
inclined to do more on this codebase, but people keep submitting patches
and pull requests, so if somebody wants to maintain it, let me know.

I also released Unipath 1.0.  It's an object-oriented path library. The
last development version was five years ago, but somebody contributed
Python 3 support so I merged it.

There's a new PEP 428 (pathlib) now that may get into Python 3.4. It has a
more modern API. However, Unipath is stable and well tested, while pathlib
is still unstable and not widely used.
