Keep the page though, because people might still rely on it (the traffic shows that they do).
Instead of our own manual we now give links to the 3rd-party ones.

Now the special comparison methods like `__eq__` and `__lt__` return
NotImplemented if one of comparands is date and other is datetime
instead of ignoring the time part and the time zone or forcefully
return "not equal" or raise TypeError.
It makes comparison of date and datetime subclasses more symmetric
and allows to change the default behavior by overriding
the special comparison methods in subclasses.
It is now the same as if date and datetime was independent classes.
By default, it preserves an inconsistent behavior of older Python
versions: packs the count into a 1-tuple if only one or none
options are specified (including 'update'), returns None instead of 0.
Except that setting wantobjects to 0 no longer affects the result.
Add a new parameter return_ints: specifying return_ints=True makes
Text.count() always returning the single count as an integer
instead of a 1-tuple or None.
The `PyDict_SetDefaultRef` function is similar to `PyDict_SetDefault`,
but returns a strong reference through the optional `**result` pointer
instead of a borrowed reference.

Change the somewhat vague "listed below" to "listed in this chapter" in Doc/library/exceptions.rst.
The exceptions are listed in multiple sections after two intermediate sections.

* When called with a single argument to get a value, it allow to omit
the minus prefix.
* It can be called with keyword arguments to set attributes.
* w.wm_attributes(return_python_dict=True) returns a dict instead of
a tuple (it will be the default in future).
* Setting wantobjects to 0 no longer affects the result.
Update documentation with `__new__` and `__init__` entries.
Support use of `auto()` in tuple subclasses on member assignment lines. Previously, auto() was only supported on the member definition line either solo or as part of a tuple:
RED = auto()
BLUE = auto(), 'azul'
However, since Python itself supports using tuple subclasses where tuples are expected, e.g.:
from collections import namedtuple
T = namedtuple('T', 'first second third')
def test(one, two, three):
print(one, two, three)
test(*T(4, 5, 6))
# 4 5 6
it made sense to also support tuple subclasses in enum definitions.
The new `PyList_GetItemRef` is similar to `PyList_GetItem`, but returns
a strong reference instead of a borrowed reference. Additionally, if the
passed "list" object is not a list, the function sets a `TypeError`
instead of calling `PyErr_BadInternalCall()`.
