Looks good. But should the source pages really use syntax highlighting?
I think if somebody is interested in the source then they should get
the real source without any highlighting. If you decide to keep the
syntax highlighting then the highlighting of multiline ReST strings
should be fixed. For example see the source for splitext().

Thanks for the work,

Yes, the branch is update regularly. I think it's done nightly.
The last checkin is from Georg Brandl for patch #1675424.

Can you update http://www.python.org/dev/bazaar/ ?
For example "Branch details" needs to be updated because the trunk
branch is no longer Python 2.6.

Because the class is designed to only support insertion order and not
any other sorting why choose a generic name that could also describe a
class that supports a different order?

I'd prefer encoding the order in the class name, therefore I suggest
(Ins|Insertion)(Order|Ordered)Dict, e.g. InsOrderDict. Abbreviating the
first group to simply I probably is too confusing because of the use of
I as a prefix for interfaces.

Maybe there's a misunderstanding because I don't see it either. I was
trying to suggest four alternative names for the OrderedDict class. I
don't prefer encoding every possible sort order into the class name. I
just wanted to improve the name of OrderedDict.

Yes, the insertion order.

And because that's all the name tells you I suggested to make the name
more clear by prepending Ins or Insertion.

Yes.
