For Py3.0.1, can we just rip these out and skip deprecation?
I don't think they will be missed at all.

I would like to deprecate some outdated functions in the operator module.
The isSequenceType(), isMappingType(), and isNumberType()
functions never worked reliably and now their
intended purpose has been largely fulfilled by
ABCs.
The isCallable() function has long been deprecated
and I think it's finally time to rip it out.
The repeat() function never really corresponded to an
operator. Instead, it reflected an underlying implementation detail (namely
the naming of the sq_repeat slot and the abstract C API function
PySequence_Repeat). That functionality is already exposed by operator.mul:
operator.mul('abc', 3) --> 'abcabcabc'
+1 to all of it.
What Brett said.
Cheers,
Nick.
