These changes caused this warning (at least on default branch) from Sphinx:

argparse-from-optparse (if the link has no caption the label must precede a 
section header)

Huh, I thought I fixed that before pushing. Maybe I missed a commit after
editing...

2014-05-31 Thread Nick Coghlan

Nick Coghlan added the comment:

New patch, with the new section moved to the end of the file, just before the 
acknowledgements.

It now has subsections for each relevant PEP, as Ezio's comments made me 
realise that PEP 434 (the IDLE consistency PEP) also deserved a mention.

I'm happy with this version, so unless someone spots a glaring error in the 
next few days, I'll push it live.

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

I think the Idle section is such a great idea I propose to add something 
similar to future What's New for 3.x. See #21621.

Did you intend to upload a diff with the current changes?

My answers:
* Just describe 466. Don't invite trouble.
* Move the section to its logical place in temporal order, with a clear link.

[issue21569] PEP 466: Python 2.7 What's New preamble changes

2014-05-24 Thread Nick Coghlan

New submission from Nick Coghlan:

Some proposed changes to the introductory section of the Python 2.7 What's New 
document. Key changes:

* I updated the Future of Python 2.x section to describe the status quo, rather 
than preserving the original speculation from 2010
* I added a new section to record the changes made in maintenance releases
* I moved the DeprecationWarning change down to its own section, since it is 
really independent of Python 2.7 being the last release

Open questions:

* the current wording makes it clear that while it's hard to get features 
backported, PEP 466 isn't necessarily a one time deal. I'm open to changing 
that to instead just describe PEP 466 as is, without saying anything about 
using the PEP process to get other changes backported
* I currently have the New Features in Maintenance Releases section near the 
top. Since it's hyperlinked from the Future of Python 2.x section anyway, 
perhaps I should move it towards the end instead?

It occurred to me while writing this that we'll potentially have an influx of 
conservative Python users reading the doc this year, as RHEL 7 and CentOS 7 
become generally available, finally upgrading the default Python in that 
ecosystem to 2.7.

Added Brett to the nosy list for feedback, since the porting guide is mostly
