Extension modules
-----------------
+- The readline module now exposes the readline() function to the Python
+ programmer. readline.readline() should be a drop-in replacement for
+ raw_input() but coupled with the other readline module functionality allow
+ programmers to offer history and input recall to their users.
+
- operator.isMappingType() and operator.isSequenceType() now give
fewer false positives.
