adding the 'makefile' method to ssl.SSLSocket, and importing the
requisite fakefile class from socket.py, and making the appropriate
changes to it to make it use the SSL connection.

Added sample HTTPS server to test_ssl.py, and test that uses it.

Change SSL tests to use https://svn.python.org/, instead of
www.sf.net and pop.gmail.com.

Added utility function to ssl module, get_server_certificate,
to wrap up the several things to be done to pull a certificate
from a remote server.

Fixes issue #1777530; will backport to release25-maint.

to a bool).  Also second argument to watchexp is now converted
to Decimal, just as with all the other two-argument operations.

Thanks Mark Dickinson.

fully updated to the latests Decimal Specification (v1.66) and the

Thanks to Mark Dickinson for all his help during this process.

confuse.

Added a note about Python 3's collections.Mapping etc., above section

Fixes issue #1147.  Need to fix 2.5 to raise a proper warning if a string

find out if they cause the segfault on the 'alpha Debian' machine.

context where it can't be imported.

Backport abc.py and isinstance/issubclass overloading to 2.6.

I had to backport test_typechecks.py myself, and make one small change
to abc.py to avoid duplicate work when x.__class__ and type(x) are the
same.

Make sure the type of the return value of re.sub(x, y, z) is the type
of y+x (i.e. unicode if either is unicode, str if they are both str)
even if there are no substitutions or if x==z (which triggered various
special cases in join_list()).

Could be backported to 2.5; no need to port to 3.0.

* Much expanded test suite:

  All protocols tested against all other protocols.
