Disallow "import mod.submod as m", because the result is ambiguous. Does it
...
load mod.submod as m, or mod as m ? Both can be achieved differently, and
unambiguously. Also attempt to document this restriction (editor
appreciated!)
Note that this is an artificial check during compile, because incorporating
this in the grammar is hard, and then adjusting the compiler to do the right
thing with the right nodes is harder.

Apply SF patch #101135 , adding 'import module as m' and 'from module import

undocumented.

Update the information about the mailing list, using the python.org
address instead of cwi.nl, and point to the pipermail archives. Also
update the daily average message count (at the risk of scaring people
off), using the mail archive at http://www.egroups.com/group/python-list
for the first half of 2000 for statistical information.

More of Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes. The only ones left now are the
...
distutils patches, which I'll leave to the distutils maintainers.
Tip: review the patch like this:
grep "^[\!+-] " <patchfile>
To get a quick and easy way to review the actual changes. Most of the
changes are single-line ones, anyway.

Rob W. W. Hooft's spelling fixes for the Library Reference. I hope
...
SourceForge doesn't choke on this batch :-)
I'm not entirely sure this is 100% correct. The patch changes an
\index{persistency} to \index{presistence}, and I don't know what \index{}
does. But it seems to do so persi--er, consistently, so I hope it isn't a
problem.

Give ConfigParser the capability to set as well as read options, and to write
...
a representation of the configuration state in .ini format that can be read
back in by a future read() call. Thus this class is now a back end
for .ini editors as well as parsers.
This patch is complete and tested, but exposes a bug in the ConfigParser
implementation which I have not yet fixed. Because case information is
discarded during parsing, the output of write() has its case smashed.
I wrote this for a SourceForge interface script called forgetool.
Documentation for the new entry points included.
