42b1ba31af * list.sort() now supports three keyword arguments: cmp, key, and reverse.
key provides C support for the decorate-sort-undecorate pattern.
  reverse provide a stable sort of the list with the comparisions reversed.

* Amended the docs to guarantee sort stability.

2f726e9093 SF bug #812202: randint is always even
* Added C coded getrandbits(k) method that runs in linear time.
* Call the new method from randrange() for ranges >= 2**53.
* Adds a warning for generators not defining getrandbits() whenever they
  have a call to randrange() with too large of a population.

dffeed3ffa Make the fieldnames argument optional in the DictReader. If self.fieldnames
is None, the next row read is used as the fieldnames.  In the common case,
this means the programmer doesn't need to know the fieldnames ahead of time.
The first row of the file will be used.  In the uncommon case, this means
the programmer can set the reader's fieldnames attribute to None at any time
and have the next row read as the next set of fieldnames, so a csv file can
contain several "sections", each with different fieldnames.

69db2b967a - change computation of VERSION to use tools/getversioninfo; this is
more reliable than using the $Revision$ expansion
- $RELEASE is no longer needed; we can just use $VERSION now

c8083cf1cc Load the version information from ../Include/patchlevel.h, so there are

43b5e40795 * Fix markup.
* Fix entry order:
  -  >>> before ...
  - __slots__ in the S section (like __future__ is in the F section)

Need to test the repaired(?) link to Guido's webpage.

Still needs to have the module reference links made relative to
the module directory instead of the tut directory.  That will
require Fred's magic touch.

cc2e48dd79 Make sure LaTeX2HTML's $TEXINPUTS variable is initialized to include
directories identified in the TEXINPUTS environment variable.
I think this is the last part of the fix for the version number
problems seen in the documentation for the 2.3.1 release.

410825ac8b Move content input files shared among the documents into a new directory
(commontex/), leaving only style support files in texinputs/.  This makes
texinputs/ part of the formatting tools while commontex/ is strictly part
of the actual documentation.
