Possibly because it was deemed to be not essential :-) For (a) writing from scratch a module that's targeted at a particular version of Python or (b) back-porting an existing module to a particular version, you need the docs for that version. As a reminder of features not to use in case (a) or that need changes in case (b), it's very handy to have a list of syntax and module changes made after that version ... for this I can't imagine anything better than amk's excellent "What's New in Python x.y" series. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
