077a11dd00 arraymodule: Fix SF bug 113960.
reverse() didn't work at all due to bad arg check.
    Fixed that.
    Added Brad Chapman to ACKS file, as the proud new owner of two
        implicitly copyrighted lines of Python source code <wink>.
    Repaired buffer_info's total lack of arg-checking.
    Replaced memmove by memcpy in reverse() guts, as memmove is
        often slower and the memory areas are guaranteed disjoint.
    Replaced poke-and-hope unchecked decl of tmp buffer size by
        assert-checked larger tmp buffer.
    Got rid of inconsistent spaces before open paren in docstrings.
    Added reverse() sanity tests to test_array.py.

8b09233f93 Added Windows news. Also repeated 1.6 Windows news since most people getting
2.0b1 for Windows will not have bothered getting 1.6.  Also changed
"Changed, New, Obsolete Tools" to say "None" since nobody had put an entry
there.

24c3d6080d All the NEWS that I could finish in 15 minutes (and then some)
Removed some attributions from the shorter entries in Changed Modules,
because that section is so long.

XXX notes for now.

I could use help here!!!!  Please mail me patches ASAP.  We may have
to put some of this off to 2.0final, but it's best to have it in shape
now...

bff879cabb This patch finalizes the move from UTF-8 to a default encoding in
the Python Unicode implementation.

The internal buffer used for implementing the buffer protocol
is renamed to defenc to make this change visible. It now holds the
default encoded version of the Unicode object and is calculated
on demand (NULL otherwise).

Since the default encoding defaults to ASCII, this will mean that
Unicode objects which hold non-ASCII characters will no longer
work on C APIs using the "s" or "t" parser markers. C APIs must now
explicitly provide Unicode support via the "u", "U" or "es"/"es#"
parser markers in order to work with non-ASCII Unicode strings.

(Note: this patch will also have to be applied to the 1.6 branch
 of the CVS tree.)
