Yield from.  New exception model.  Stdlib enhancements such as futures.   The argument goes like this:  We have a very popular platform out there with lots of momentum.  People want incremental enhancements to it.  Why not give them what they want?  Bread and games and all that?  A Rockband cannot stay cooped up in a studio producing experimental concept albums all the time.  That is death.  Sometimes it needs to go on tour and play old hits for the fans!

I don't think we have recent download numbers since the Website
overhaul (do we?), but Python 3 isn't an "experimental concept
language" anymore (it hasn't been since 3.3 or 3.2, I'd say).

Antoine.
