Continue the post-release mechanics; we need a "What's New" document
so the docs can be built.

% When creating a new ``What's New'' document, copy this to

% ../whatsnew/whatsnewXY.tex, where X is replaced by the major version
7+
% number and Y, by the minor version number for the release of Python
8+
% being described.
9+
%
10+
% The following replacements need to be made in the text:
11+
%
12+
% X.Y -- the version of Python this document describes
13+
% X.Y-1 -- previous minor release (not a maintenance release)
14+
% X.Y-2 -- minor release before that one (optional; search the
15+
% template to see the usage
16+
%
17+
% In this document, these map to the following replacements:
18+
% (Please complete this section when specific replacements are made.)

%
20+
% X.Y -- 2.5

This article explains the new features in Python 2.5. No release date
36+
for Python 2.5 has been set; expect that this will happen next year.
37+
38+
% Compare with previous release in 2 - 3 sentences here.
39+
40+
This article doesn't attempt to provide a complete specification of
41+
the new features, but instead provides a convenient overview. For
42+
full details, you should refer to the documentation for Python 2.5.
43+
% add hyperlink when the documentation becomes available online.
44+
If you want to understand the complete implementation and design
45+
rationale, refer to the PEP for a particular new feature.
46+
47+

%======================================================================

% Large, PEP-level features and changes should be described here.

\section{Other Language Changes}
55+
56+
Here are all of the changes that Python 2.5 makes to the core Python
57+
language.
58+
59+
\begin{itemize}
60+
\item TBD
61+
62+
\end{itemize}

\subsection{Optimizations}
67+
68+
\begin{itemize}
69+
70+
\item Optimizations should be described here.
71+
72+
\end{itemize}
73+
74+
The net result of the 2.5 optimizations is that Python 2.5 runs the
75+
pystone benchmark around XX\% faster than Python X.Y-1.%
76+
% only use the next line if you want to do the extra work ;) :
77+
% and YY\% faster than Python X.Y-2.
78+
79+

%======================================================================
81+
\section{New, Improved, and Deprecated Modules}
82+
83+
As usual, Python's standard library received a number of enhancements and
84+
bug fixes. Here's a partial list of the most notable changes, sorted
85+
alphabetically by module name. Consult the
86+
\file{Misc/NEWS} file in the source tree for a more
87+
complete list of changes, or look through the CVS logs for all the
88+
details.

\section{Build and C API Changes}
103+
104+
Changes to Python's build process and to the C API include:
105+
106+
\begin{itemize}
107+
108+
\item Detailed changes are listed here.
109+
110+
\end{itemize}

\section{Other Changes and Fixes \label{section-other}}
121+
122+
As usual, there were a bunch of other improvements and bugfixes
123+
scattered throughout the source tree. A search through the CVS change
124+
logs finds there were XXX patches applied and YYY bugs fixed between
125+
Python X.Y-1 and 2.5. Both figures are likely to be underestimates.
126+
127+
Some of the more notable changes are:
128+
129+
\begin{itemize}
130+
131+
\item Details go here.
132+

\section{Porting to Python 2.5}
138+
139+
This section lists previously described changes that may require
140+
changes to your code:
141+
142+
\begin{itemize}
143+
144+
\item Everything is all in the details!
145+
