SF:944407 urllib2 exception classes

This page lists various things that aren't documented in the main Python docs, but should be. We should try to fix these before 2.5final.

Features

The reference manual doesn't mention new-style classes at all. (I can't see that it really specifies the semantics of old-style classes, either.) I'm not sure the information is even collected anywhere. A start is now at NewClassVsClassicClass

Iterator protocol not described on its own (mentioned in passing in ref's discussion of generators)

Are nested scopes explained in the ref?

PEPS that aren't covered: new-style classes.

Other tasks

Also see ModulesThatNeedDocs.

Add example code to various modules.

Relevant SF bugs

984952 PEP 307 not documented (mostly done -- needs a pickle expert to decide if anything else in PEP 307 is worth including).

966625 descriptors not documented

960340 new-style classes

914375 modulefinder
