[$] What should be in the Python standard library?

<p>Python has always touted itself as a "batteries included" language; itsstandard library contains lots of useful modules, often more than enough tosolve many types of problems quickly.

A discussion at the end of November on the python-dev mailing list revived that debateto some extent.
